Looking for fixer-uper Pontoon Boat

Hi all,
I would like to find an old pontoon boat 20-24 ft long with a running 25-60 hp outboard and trailer. I don't really care what the boat looks like as long as the pontoons, engine, and controls are serviceable. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My neighbor has one he mentioned selling. It has a new floor and a very good trailer but no motor. He bought it for a fixer upper project also but developed health problems before completion. I don't know anymore about it to tell you.

His name is Talmedge Horton 562-4888 if you're interested and lives off 27 North.

Thanks Sea Gurl, but I really want a boat with existing power.

Will this pontoon handle a 115hp motor?

Mudducker,
I don't know if you are asking me or Sea Gurl, but either way I don't know the answer. If you're interested in this boat you can call Sea Gurl's neighbor and ask. Many pontoon boats I've seen sport smaller engines, but I have seen them with 150's hanging on the back. Personally, I prefer something more economical say 25-60 hp. Basically I'm looking for a trailerable, motorized dock I can use for lake fishing. When it comes to freshwater fishing nothing beats a pontoon boat for space and comfort.

Thanks Algaegator, but I was asking Sea Gurl. I've got a 115 coming off of a deck boat eat up with electrolsis, so I am looking for a boat to hang it on.

Morning Mudducker

I did talk to my neighbor this weekend and he does want to sell his boat. He told me it was a 19' deck boat. I will get more exact details on boat & trailer and post it for him but in the mean time you could call him 562-4888 and ask.
