Who else purchases a boat for their dog! Olive looks happy and content and she looks awesome in her new attire. Congratulations on a really nice boat. May you enjoy your new boat along with Olive for many years to come.
I got emotional watching this because I purchased a pontoon boat almost 3 years ago - family of four with an aging black Lab who loved the water! We lost her to cancer 1 year after getting our boat but we had a summer with her that I will never forget and I think she went out happy! We scattered her ashes on the river and get to be with her every time we go out now! Thanks for sharing and I hope you make great memories on your boat the way me and my family have done and continue to do every year! Best Wishes and thanks for sharing!
Those are great reasons to buy and own a pontoon boat. Congrats and I hope it provides many fun years and memories for your family! Thanks for the video.
It was a great summer with the pontoon boat. It's now winterized and stored for the winter season - but we're looking forward to getting it back out next summer!
Great to hear! Do you live somewhere that you'll be able to enjoy the pontoon boat for a while before winter? We just winterized our pontoon boat. But we're already looking forward to Spring when we can get it back out on the water!
Loving my pontoon boat. 2nd hand. Came with a 50 hp 2 stroke. Got lucky and found a low hours 90 hp 4 stroke. Just a suggestion, raise your motor on transom a couple bolt holes and you’ll be happier.
I got a pontoon last season for my lakehouse. Paid $5k, came with a brand new yamaha 9.9 with no hours on it. I Picked up a 3hp electric motor that cruises around 7mph. I like the secondary electric motor that is just silent and ready to go when you put the throttle up no gas fumes or idling noise is nice when you're on a relaxing ride. 2 batteries charged the night before last the entire day of boat rides. There is the option of 10hp electric motor as well. Grab a board of snacks and a cooler, little tv mounted with an antenna for the sports games and a nice radio going. Havn't had a single regret. If you go out at night at all having some bright LED underglow under your boat lighting up the water is some really nice ambiance. I like the light blue look.
I’ve been thinking about adding some of those LED lights around under the platform that would light up the pontoons and the lake nicely at night. Great explanation of your boat and the beauty of time on the water. Enjoy it! It sounds like you (like us) found out that the joy of pontoon life is something we wish we would have started experiencing many years ago. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment!
You can ski behind that, but the water will be really soft. Nice boat, great combination of features and benefits. Good purchase. I've got a 2021 SportFish dlx 22' 150hp - overkill, but it's what the wife wanted...can't say I mind the 30+ mph top speed either.
I've always liked those SportFish boats - the great combination of watersports/recreation and function for fishing or hanging out on the water. 150HP would be great! In case you haven't seen it yet - here's the "can I ski behind this 60 hp pontoon" video: th-cam.com/video/4HCiSPj2WgM/w-d-xo.html
Morning Chad and family. Thanks - a very timely and helpful video. Carol and I just made the same decision - I was also concerned that the 60 HP Merc would not be strong enough but you answered my questions. Cheers and all the best to you folks! Thanks again
Hi Gord! Thanks for watching the video. I think you and Carol will love having a pontoon boat. We're very used to a ski boat and the PWC -but the pontoon boat introduced a new type of boating to us this year - relaxing comfort! :)
Pontoon is on my want list. I really enjoyed the few times I was out on Flathead Lake on my Aunt & Uncles. They're a very comfortable and relaxing type of boat.
We've been very happy with the pontoon boat. And we're really pleased that Olive seems to be comfortable on it and enjoy the time with us. And we're enjoying every second with her!
Boat (bring out a thousand) my wife told me we needed a pontoon as well. I sold our runabout and got a sun tracker 22. We love the room, storage and comfort and are 9 or 10 year old dog loves coming with. She was a rescue as well.
We enjoy Dude Dad's "bust out another thousand" video about boats. th-cam.com/users/shortsjK2cGe2QO50 Thankfully that's never been our experience. We are very excited about the pontoon boat. Already it's been worth the investment. Tons of room - comfortable, and easy to use. I even have been thinking about working while on the boat. I'm sure I could power up my laptop with the Jackery and work on editing videos! :) We are thankful for each day we get with Olive. She's been a blessing.
nice vid per usual Chad. hope you and the family caught a break in the weather and was able to enjoy that boat more. my wife cant have kids unfortunately but our dog is like family too i hope Olive will continue on and give you guys many more memorable memories. cheers buddy you living the good life over there 3 thing u cant sleep on when u find a deal or it will be gone in minutes, boats, trailers/car haulers, rvs/travel trailers. specially in the active season they go like hot cakes now if u can wait till winter there are usually deals to be had, but if your anything like me waiting is for the birds lol i dont like to wait on potential toys cant enjoy them during the winter then u gotta store the dang thig
We're certainly enjoying every second we get with Olive at this point. She's been a loyal friend and companion - certainly part of the family. We feel very blessed. You're right on the fact you can't miss an opportunity with boats/rvs/trailers around here in the summer months. It's also a great time to SELL if you have something like that you're not using. I've had offers on my enclosed trailer for more than I paid for it (it's not for sale). Thanks for watching!
Enjoy your boat!! We just had to sell our tritoon because of being diagnosed with hepatic cellular carcinoma. It just got too much to take care of. We only had 114 hours on her and managed to sell her in about a week. Already miss her. Use the max out of yours.
I saw this video a while back when considering a different boat, but finally got my pontoon last month. 2012 Sun Tracker 22dlx. 90 horse. Came with the trailer, anchors, ropes, bumpers, life vests and a fish finder for 13k. Next up is getting a VesselView and putting some light bars under the bow to use as headlights. Oh, and figuring out how 2 Rottweilers are gonna do on it. Thanks for the rundown!
@PurpleCollarLife the prop that is on it makes it hole shot better, but lacks top speed. Does about 19 with 2 big dudes and their gear. We're in a spot where we don't have to worry about that thing called winter, so we're gonna keep it up. I love this thing. 1 person launch would kinda suck though. You may be able to pull the intake restrictor out of the 60 to get a little more out of it. As long as Olive is happy. That's what matters. Bo and Chewy send their regards.
I live in Reno 50 minutes from Lake Tahoe and have been contemplating buying a boat. I thought I wanted a bow rider for the family but the more I research I think our family needs a pontoon boat. Great video. Now I need to figure out if I should go used or new.
I used to trash talk pontoon boats until I started acting as the "designated boat driver" for a "guys weekend" at Lake Norman, a huge man-made lake near Charlotte, NC. Nearly 28' long, and basically a family room on the water. I had to concede my prejudice was misplaced. Congrats on the new boat...good times ahead. 👍😎
Thanks, Chris! Pontoon boats have really changed in the last 20 years. The tubes are bigger diameter, the engines are larger, and they're more comfortable than ever. My pontoon boat experience growing up was mostly just seeing them put around, and then when my parents rented one every few years for a camping trip. The rental was vinyl floor, a bolted-down picnic table, and whatever lawn chairs you wanted to bring on the boat. Oh - and 9.9 hp oil/gas mix 2-stroke engine with no trim/tilt. If you rented it for 2 hours - don't plan on going far at that speed. Basically out 45 minutes from the marina, and then back to make sure you're back in time to return it. These pontoon boats of today are another story! AND - I am getting older. Slowing down seems to be pretty comfortable. Though - I'm still pretty sure (and I feel challenged to see if it's possible) that I can get up and waterski behind this new pontoon boat.
Nice boat I grew up in a boating family myself. I’ve had my own boat on the water at Tygart lake since 2004 started out with fiberglass but just recently in the last couple years purchased a Bennington 2375RSB really love the boat definitely nice family boat we don’t wakeboard like we used to so it has a Yamaha 200 motor on it that pulls a skier just fine I didn’t catch in the video where this Lake was. ?
Boating is certainly a favorite of ours. My first boat was a 17' Sylvan fish and ski boat (sport select). It had a Johnson 70 hp oil injection engine, and a 9.9 kicker. It was a fun boat. I sold it to have money to build a garage. Since that time, I've had a number of Nautique ski boats and Sea Doo PWCs. They're all fun - and each is a different experience. But the pontoon boat may quickly become my favorite. And having a jetski and a pontoon boat may prove to be the ultimate combination. This was at Shenango - an Army Corps of Engineers flood control lake. We made a video about it being PA's best kept secret. th-cam.com/video/_erQJ0hXVuU/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching!
@@PurpleCollarLife I have been up to that lake it’s been decades but as a kid in 1995 we went to a different Lake every weekend until we picked Tygart to grow roots and get camps been there every since 👍
Tracker boats are made right here in Arkansas and Missouri. White River Marine, which is named after the White River here in Arkansas, is the parent company of Tracker boats. Just an interesting factoid there. I love plugging my state 😊. Very nice boat!! Congratulations on your purchase Chad and Jennifer! My dad has an aluminum flat bottom boat, he likes to fish a lot. I think it's a Ranger. And me personally I enjoy canoeing. Especially on the Buffalo River here. It's a beautiful place to go on a float trip, there is even an area with rapids. So if you enjoy white water rapids, I highly recommend it! Thanks for sharing!! Happy Father's Day!!
That's great to hear that the Tracker boats are made near you! I was pretty sure they were made in the USA - but I couldn't remember where. We're thrilled with the pontoon boat. Like Jennifer said - we probably should have had this boat a few years ago. But we still love the Nautique and PWC. I'll have to tell you about our kayak/canoe adventure on the Snake River when we were camping out west. It's a funny story (now that we've survived to tell it). Thanks for watching!
Making memories, can't go wrong with that! I'm guessing the "Party Barge" will also be a little kinder to you than the 300+ hp V8 boat, when it is time to fuel up. 😁
After weeks of boating, we filled the pontoon boat up (40 gallons) only twice. We would fill the 300 HP Nautique up just about every day or 2 days depending on how much pulling it had to do for wakeboarding, tubing, and waterskiing.
We got our pontoon about 3 years ago and amazingly enough we also have a Great Dane named Olive same color and markings but is 3 year old just amazed by the coincidence in dogs by the way our Olive loves boat and car rides.
What did you give for the boat? I just picked up a 2017 SunTracker Bass Buggy 18DLX Paid 19k. I got the VesselView module that plugs into the motor and gives you all kinds of data via bluetooth. It told me the motor had 117 hrs on it (has no hour meter) East Texas here. Used to live in SE PA.
We paid under $15K for the boat. It was a nice deal for a pontoon boat, with trailer and 60 HP motor, in good condition. I do wish these had hour meters on them.
Hey brother , I know I am a year late . But I was watching your tach . You might want to check and see about it turning those high RPM . Would hate for you to hurt your motor .
Excellent point. I need to get that checked. I can't imagine that it's actually running over 7000 RPM like the tach shows - but I should get that confirmed and have the adjustment made so that the tach appropriately shows the engine speed.
This is just south of Pymatuning on Route 18 in PA, near Hermitage. This is Shenango Lake - an Army Corps flood control lake. th-cam.com/video/_erQJ0hXVuU/w-d-xo.html
Congrats on the new boat. If my farm projects ever slow down I hope to get back to some of my hobbies and would love to have a boat to spend some time on the lake. I think the pontoon with the cover would make for a great fishing platform and would be a lot of fun. Maybe someday. Happy Fathers day, you guys have fun! th-cam.com/video/V0O0nzkESTI/w-d-xo.html
Every time we go out on the boat, we sing that Little Big Town song. :) It's like it is stuck in our heads. It's great to camp and boat and just get away from the stress and hustle of life. Without these moments of relaxation and family - I'd burn out pretty quick with my work schedule. I hope you have a chance to take a break soon. Maintaining a farm and property is a ton of work.
Very interesting. The dealership installed the motor on the boat - I assumed they would know what they were doing for setting it up. I'll have to check with someone before we get the boat out next year and make sure my setup isn't going to mess up that Mercury Bigfoot engine!
You’re not the first person to leave a comment saying that. This is the first pontoon boat I’ve ever had - so I’m not sure how low the prop should be in the water. I can tell you that I asked at the dealership, and they said it’s set up properly. But maybe it depends on where the people/load in the boat is? Maybe if we had a few people sitting in the front of the boat, we’d be more level on plane?
You're 100% right - now that I'm used to the pontoon boat, it will certainly be difficult to go back to another type of boat. I like not getting as wet putting the boat in and out of the water, and the comfort of the lounge seats and the amazing storage and open space. We live about 30 minutes from the closest river that this boat can go on - and about 1 hour from the lake we often go to. It certainly would be nice to be closer to the waterways. Thanks for watching!
We agree. Unfortunately we don’t get to pick the ads that get placed in the videos. We recently saw some ads on our content that we weren’t pleased with also. I’m not sure how they get selected.
Who else purchases a boat for their dog! Olive looks happy and content and she looks awesome in her new attire. Congratulations on a really nice boat. May you enjoy your new boat along with Olive for many years to come.
Thank you so much!

Which lake is this? We usually go to cheat lake in wv but always looking for some more options. I think pymatuning is 9.9hp or less.
This is just south of Pymatuning on Route 18 in PA, near Hermitage. This is Shenango Lake - an Army Corps flood control lake. th-cam.com/video/_erQJ0hXVuU/w-d-xo.html
Our great Danes lived about 7-8 yrs. I know one that is 11 and looks it.
Thanks for watching! We certainly hope our Great Dane still has some time left with us. She's a great companion and friend.
Looks like shenango Lake pa?
100%!
It's the mini van of the lake except you can put three toons and 250 hp. on them.
What kind of sonar is on the pontoon
Don’t worry be happy uuuuuuu🎵🎵🎵

Every time we go out on the boat, we sing that Little Big Town song. :) It's like it is stuck in our heads.
It's great to camp and boat and just get away from the stress and hustle of life. Without these moments of relaxation and family - I'd burn out pretty quick with my work schedule. I hope you have a chance to take a break soon. Maintaining a farm and property is a ton of work.
Yikes you have to raise your motor. Your power head is literally in the water. Your going to #@^% that beautiful outboard up.
Very interesting. The dealership installed the motor on the boat - I assumed they would know what they were doing for setting it up. I'll have to check with someone before we get the boat out next year and make sure my setup isn't going to mess up that Mercury Bigfoot engine!
Motor looks like it needs to be moved up two holes

oh just admit it. you're getting old(er) 😅 I would have one if I had any navigable water around me
You're 100% right - now that I'm used to the pontoon boat, it will certainly be difficult to go back to another type of boat. I like not getting as wet putting the boat in and out of the water, and the comfort of the lounge seats and the amazing storage and open space. We live about 30 minutes from the closest river that this boat can go on - and about 1 hour from the lake we often go to. It certainly would be nice to be closer to the waterways. Thanks for watching!
I would beg to differ, boats do not hold thier value very well.
Around here, boats do a nice job holding value.
Uhmmmm guess you have not been shopping for a boat past few years.
needs a toilet
That’s funny. But then - someone would have to empty the porta-potty after each outing - ruining the fun.
Such a SHAME that this video was interrupted by a KILLING MACHINE / GUN advertisement.
We agree. Unfortunately we don’t get to pick the ads that get placed in the videos. We recently saw some ads on our content that we weren’t pleased with also. I’m not sure how they get selected.
😂😂😂😂
Your dog swims trust me. Push it off the toon it will swim , I've never seen a dog that can't swim if it can walk !!
