Agreed. Whoever ends up with The Barge is getting a war wagon. What a great setup to fish the lakes region. Super comfortable. I'm personally glad John isn't selling until the 1st of June, because I want one more day on that boat before it changes hands.
Another Pontoon boat, I like comfort,ha,ha. it's a 2011 Bennington 22ssi, not on their web site yet, it's a new model, but the dealers are selling them and some have them.
Just a little smaller (4') than The Barge, rear fishing center, live well, fishing chairs, etc. from the helm forward it's my wife's, all comfort couches and chaise lounge, etc. Kinda a salt water special, built with salt in mind. Keeping in the retirement mode (gas approaching 4.00/gal) I went with a smaller motor, should be able to go a week trolling between fill ups, only a 31 gallon tank, 50 hp 4 stroke. Hope to fish 7 days a week next winter, ha,ha. I forgot, textured vinyl floor, let them big fish bleed all they want, no rugs.
Light weight, should haul to Florida back and forth easily.
