Real nice rig Papa. Had a neighbor that came home with one similar to yours quite a few years ago. Bought for use when the kids that came down to their summer retreat home. Didn't start fishing with it until recently and he loves it when its not in the repair shop.
He makes the mistake of letting the kids take it out for water skiing and tubing. More than one driver has been proven to harm the engine, especially when they just put it on the lift for the winter and wonder why in the spring things don't work.
Enjoy your new ride Papa, want to see a fish pic on deck next.

Oh my Papa, that’s a beautiful and comfy looking rig. I think I’d be able to live on it!

Whoo Hoo! Sweet set up...the long wait is over! I think you are going to have a blast spending time on that boat. Very wide and stable for walking around and lounging as well as fishing. Lot's of great memories await you and your family! Enjoy to the fullest!

engine?
Mercury 150hp. Biggest that will fit on a pontoon. Couldn't afford a tri-toon.

dont worry papa. bought mine last year; 16 ft max hp a a merc 50 and it cruises nice at 20 and easily tops 25. i bet your 22 will really haul bass with only 6 ft more length and 3x the motor. live it up. had mine out in the ocean last month and it performed great in a 2-3 ft sea

I got the 20’ 90hp biggest they would put on runs just under 30mph if running with the wind 😄 You will love it.

Thanks Fly. Pontoon. I have a propane grill that attaches and hangs over the outside of the rails on my Christmas wish list. Maybe Santa will come through.
Depends on you!!... 🎅🏻
