Awesome job Jeff from Barletta. You didn't even know how famous Albert is on TH-cam and yet you took the time to represent yourself , Albert's channel, and Barletta Boats in the most generous and professional manner. To me that's just an extension of the pride and professionalism Barletta instills in their boats and in their sales and fabrication team. It was easy to see you represented your company with personal pride in what you truly believe is the best on the water. What people couldn't see is how these B's are the best built pontoon boats in the business. Their frames are as solid as they come and that's what makes them ride like no other pontoon on the water. Munson Boats would even have a hard time competing against you in the Toon business. If you ever get a chance watch there manufacturing video of the frame and compare it to any other if they even allow you to see them under the deck. Thanks Again! -Capt Ron Beermunder
I got a pontoon since 2013 Bennington 20 ft with a 70 hp and me and my family loved my kid’s tubing and knee board at 30 mph with 3 people on it perfect for a family of 4 👍🏽✌🏽
25:50 "Funest day of your life or the wreck of the century!" That's a great quote for boating, love it!! Filming "shit shows," you're guaranteed that anytime there are more than 2 boats together! Cool video, love your narration!
Great video, just like in South Miami! I’ve watched your Chit Show for several years, love all of ‘em! But I gotta tell you it’s an awesome job on the Pontoon’s! I really like the Bennington and Barletta! Keep up the good work!
Alfred, I always enjoy watching your videos! I use to frequently attend the Knoxville Boat Show and the Mobile Boat Show when I lived in Sevierville after living in Daphne. I currently live near Chattanooga, but I do miss living along the Gulf Coast. I currently work near the Tennessee River and one Pontoon Boat Owner told me that he paid around 90k for his boat. I do admit that his boat was very plush. However, for that type of money, I would much rather purchase a boat with an enclosed cabin. Jeff was a wonderful sales representative for the Bartletta brand of Pontoon Boats.
A video on the 20k to 50k range would be cool. Also some technical specs on the pontoon technology and decking material and if furniture covers are available or included
Wouldn't have given 5 cent for a pontoon boat until this video. Like you said,"this ain't grandpa's pontoon boat any more". Loved those Barletta boats and those last two got my vote also. Dang, not gonna give up my Grady White but it would be nice to have a Barletta to ride around and drink a beer in.
Great Video Alfred 5 stars! Hey I met Jeff from Barletta at a show here in Nashville TN, he's such a great guy! I noticed he was the only one to show you any his boats too! I'll be contacting Jeff soon for mine! Thanks for always coming out with great "chit" bro!!!
Man I love all boats especially Toons but I really love my new 2021 Harris 210 Cruiser tri-toon w/ Mercury 150hp... It is so weird to go so fast on a tri-toon. 20mph feels like 50mph so you can imagine what 40mph feels like! I also got full length lifting strakes so the boat corners like a V-Hull !
Enjoyed your video as always. This video struck home by showing there is a larger variety of Pontoon Boats on the market with entryways wide enough to allow a wheelchair user to broad without having to modify the door opening/openings and wide open floor space to move around a bit. Good job......
This is really cool Alfred. I had been considering checking out some Pontoons and then I see you post this video. I have a Sylvan dealer about 10 minutes away from where I live too. Nice time for you to go to Tennessee and get away from the craziness in Miami right now!
You get around bro! lol 😂 You need to come up to Smith Lake Alabama this summer and see all the pontoons up here! There are some sic ones with twin 300hp pushing them! Also some very beautiful homes! Good times!
Blue lights will get you boarded in some states. They are for emergency boats only. Make sure they state 'violet' or some other color with a written statement.
The boat in the thumbnail. The boat i was most looking forward for you to look at and talk about more especially with a dealer rep was missed and kind of just thrown in last minute. Manitou I'm so impressed with thier packaging engine options and usability. One thing thats important is beam right. Can you actually legally tow it lake to lake. So many questions id love awnsered. Next show you got to go straight to manitou and have a dealer rep with you.
I would love a pontoon boat, as I can fish on it, roll sleeping bags out, barbecue on it, just every great thing I love doing on lakes, and rivers here in Idaho! But? A cheap one cost more than I can afford. :( Appreciate the video!!
Check out marketplace and craigslist. I bought one for 2k and then redid everything. Took it apart. Redid the floor and had a lady reupholster everything to look like it was like new. I didn't want just one color. Those cup holders we made. It doesn't look expensive like these but its great for us. I'm only on here to get ideas lol
Alfred when you coming to NC bro? I want to take you out on Lake Wylie in my Tritoon man. I only have a Mercury 150 4s but we would have a blast at out lake sandbar. I’m sure those $20k boat prices are with no motor. If not I got ripped off BAD! Lol 😂
this might be helpful. I like that first one as well, the Manitou. In Fact I just bought one.. I don't have that kind of boat show change. They don't have pricing on that because they are so high, I wish they did though so I could tell you and you could compare. My boat cost 3 grand trailer and all. No joke. LOL polished up nice. It's a 2006 - the one you are looking at there , I bet it costs upwards of 39K. mine does not have a third tube. but still.
REAL NICE. Only thing is plan for TAXES FOR FIFTEEN YEARS. New laws in South Carolina require taxes paid each year FIRST or they hold your registration stickers. The problem was owners would register there boat for three years without paying any taxes. After the registration expired they would sell there boat WITH Taxes OWED pushing the three years of taxes on the NEW OWNER. Insurance is required. You wouldn’t want to take a chance without insurance. Invest in a shelter And a good rain proof cover. Absolutely no less.
150 is perfect motor IMO for one of these. 115 will work but fully loaded your just not gonna be able to push the limit when doing tow sports. 90 for me is way to underpowered, unless your just cruising. Good price though!
Alfred, you walked the decks of two Benningtons with heads and or showers on the port side aft without saying a word. It must have been too close to dinner time. And I didn't see any fishing 'toons at this show. What's up with a Tennessee boat show with no fishing boats? The world's just done gone crazy.
Nice. How do you store and preserve this in the off season though. I can see a lot of deterioration happening. I would at least need clears around it and a huge shed
Only problem with any boat is they don't outlast the payment plan, put that bad boy on the water in a marina in a couple years it looks like crap and already needs repair, or keep it at home in a shop or garage out of weather and sun and it will last much longer, but how many do that? I love boats but i can only afford when they get thrown away and i can fix to be like new... Currently have a 89 Searay 200 Cuddy Customized, New from hull up investment to date appox $4500.00
They have the cup holders way below the rub rails and out of the way now because the marine police have some very high tec binoculars these days! lol 😂
Hey Alfred I have been watching your videos for some days now, and it`s great to see people not wearing masks, as it should be. People living free lives down there Nice to see everything green. Very refreshing videos you have. Brad Pitt you are not, LOLOLO....Yet. I will be watching. I have learned a lot of how a Marina works. It`s interesting how many people make it back to the docks alive. No common sense for most.
My thoughts exactly concerning the INCLUTION of the engines is a lot more than just the word Valve!! It is more than the boat isfor gods sake. To me it is especaily erxpensive since I grew up sailing mostly. And noisy as hell.
Hey Bro, another great vid, thanks..... But, in any scenario on the water; keep an eye out for the "pon looney tooners", unfortunately they are out there (Sandsprit-word) ... Stay safe our brother from another mother ;)@@AlfredMontaner
If I had 125k to spend on a boat, it sure wouldn't be on a pontoon...I like pontoons, but that kind of price for one is ridiculous, unless it's a houseboat pontoon.
Why are there so many commercials?! I would love to watch this whole video, but I'm not fighting through ads all day long. Good video, too many commercials.

Love this video Alfred. Great job. Love pontoon boats.
Jeff was so awesome! Great vid thanks. I really loved the Sylvan Party Fish!
Just got our 2024 Bennington 20SVL-SPS with Yamaha F150. Great boat. Thanks for the video.
Great video, just like in South Miami! I’ve watched your Chit Show for several years, love all of ‘em! But I gotta tell you it’s an awesome job on the Pontoon’s! I really like the Bennington and Barletta! Keep up the good work!
Glad to see you spent the 13hrs for your subscribers. 👍
Glad to see you did different boat show .
Well done video and your running commentary was great!, Keep them coming sir!
This was a very good video and thanks to Jeff (good salesman) I learned lots about Pontoons. Watching you from Roma Italy. Ciao
Dude I love this video I was just curious about pontoons but couldn't find any videos. You're my hero

Great video! I love these comparison vids. Our boat show got cancelled so this is perfect!
I am digging the Sylvan boats!
Great job Jeff and Barlettq for having him
BIG ASS pontoon I rented with a 200hp motor maxed out at 36-37 mph…. What a time to be alive! 💨
Wow, that's sweet, I have a bennington rcw 2010, and I love it.
A video on the 20k to 50k range would be cool. Also some technical specs on the pontoon technology and decking material and if furniture covers are available or included
Only junk in that price range or small hp motors.
@@82mattlopez you can get a 22 ft pontoon with a 200hp motor for under 40k in todays market believe it or not 😎
Oh wow, the black, blue and Red boat, the one behind Jeff when he finished talking and the pontoon red seats OMG!!!! VERY SEXY boats...
Wouldn't have given 5 cent for a pontoon boat until this video.
Like you said,"this ain't grandpa's pontoon boat any more".
Loved those Barletta boats and those last two got my vote also.
Dang, not gonna give up my Grady White but it would be nice to have a Barletta to ride around and drink a beer in.
still wont give a nickel if it dont have a sh**er
cool stuff- lets go wakeboard video !!! ;)

You don't show enough fishing tritoons because there are alot of older fisherman

Now I want a pontoon!!!! Great video Alfred!!! 😁
thanks for the video, Im just getting ready to buy a pontoon and this will help a lot since our local boat show was canceled.
Good pontoons ... bro...

Awesome video!!! Very informative too!!! I just wanted to know which boat show would be the best to see the most number of pontoon boats??
all sweet,,, like to see ones with the pop up room for a head
Shout out to Joel at Madisonville Marine and the best boat dealer around. Love our G3 tritoon elite !
Alternate title for this could be “Pontoon ASR” lmao
Amazing changes since the original pontoon boats became available on the market
Growing up we had folding chairs on our pontoon boat lol, things have come a long way.
Thank you 😊
Party barges! 🥰
Bro awesome job, I think I’m going to check out my local boat dealer for nice pontoon boat, thanks bro!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥💕💕💕💕🔥🔥🔥🔥
I might be mistaken.. I think Sun Catcher was the first manufacturer of pontoons...
Shout out from Philippines jamuat family
I like all the lighting accents, the seats and loungers look very comfortable also, would you happen to notice the fuel tank capacity?
Those 20k sylvans are with the 90hp..my friend bought one for 20k with that set up
Bennington black with audacious RED. even the engine cover

Big money !!!

the pontoon boat @ 18 minutes 38 seconds sold for 24,799 had a 90 hp, read the sold sign it says sold with a 70hp
So What Happened on Your Live Stream on The Water Taxi, Mate? Dang, I Was Just Starting To Enjoy The Trip!
Youll see it tomorrow
Only problem with any boat is they don't outlast the payment plan, put that bad boy on the water in a marina in a couple years it looks like crap and already needs repair, or keep it at home in a shop or garage out of weather and sun and it will last much longer, but how many do that? I love boats but i can only afford when they get thrown away and i can fix to be like new... Currently have a 89 Searay 200 Cuddy Customized, New from hull up investment to date appox $4500.00
They have the cup holders way below the rub rails and out of the way now because the marine police have some very high tec binoculars these days! lol 😂
So this is a few years ago theres now way they go for around these prices anymore.
Hey Alfred I have been watching your videos for some days now, and it`s great to see people not wearing masks, as it should be. People living free lives down there Nice to see everything green. Very refreshing videos you have. Brad Pitt you are not, LOLOLO....Yet. I will be watching. I have learned a lot of how a Marina works. It`s interesting how many people make it back to the docks alive. No common sense for most.
Can't believe you were looking at pontoons and have not looked at a Sun Tracker brand pontoon famous brand of pontoons out there
Ey looks great 👍 were its the location?
How well does a Pontoon boat handle in the ocean or rough water?
How much extra does it cost for the trailer to take the pontoon boat to the lake?
I like pontoons too, but what about the missing toilet.... 🙄
barletta is the one i want
Can be shipped to Qatar in Middle Este
Hello fellow TH-camrs! Does anyone know if the pontoon Arch Tower folds down for low clearance situations? Thanks in advance!
My thoughts exactly concerning the INCLUTION of the engines is a lot more than just the word Valve!! It is more than the boat isfor gods sake. To me it is especaily erxpensive since I grew up sailing mostly. And noisy as hell.
Who was the manufacturer of the last two boats in the video?
Can you show fishing pontoon luxury
The prices would be informative
Nice pontoons Alfred. Which one is good for the bays, intercostal, and offshore?
tri toons
Hey Bro, another great vid, thanks..... But, in any scenario on the water; keep an eye out for the "pon looney tooners", unfortunately they are out there (Sandsprit-word) ... Stay safe our brother from another mother ;)@@AlfredMontaner
@@AlfredMontaner I jumped on over to the on the water demo's can't believe twin 425's on the Ben, wow man nice!
@@jakejesse9868 Have you seen the video of Alfred on the water going over 60mph on a Bennington Tritoon? It was unbelievable!
100 grand for a pontoon boat? No way!
Got to pay to play
more fishing pontoons
20k is dealership pricing. Retail is a whole giant world.
Dang, there's more yellow than black on that video bar
No pricing?
I have a 1/4 Yamaha rebuilt 2stroke
I know boats are expensive but over 100 grand for a pontoon?
Not a fan of pontoon boats. My husband and I are looking at the Solara s250 coupe. It is a good weekender.
I am looking to buy a boat, but staying away from any pontoon boats!
Hi I'm new to your channel, when is the next pontoon show,
Which way is the easiest to bay one
Also, How did you survive Miami! yo you an x-men or somthing!
Bro what hall is that venue?
The seats look very hard
26 feet but a lot more beem;? one or two feet would really make a difference.
If I had 125k to spend on a boat, it sure wouldn't be on a pontoon...I like pontoons, but that kind of price for one is ridiculous, unless it's a houseboat pontoon.
No trailer!! Lol
Why are there so many commercials?! I would love to watch this whole video, but I'm not fighting through ads all day long. Good video, too many commercials.
you only have comercial if you watch it in the phone. watch it in the computer
