Hi Dean. I haven't made any specific plans for the pontoon boat yet, but I
have been collecting random parts for it. I have some 14 inch diameter stainless
tubes ( exhaust ductwork ) that's 18 gage, and some 4X4X1/2 aluminum angle. I
was leaning toward two outboard motors, and a deck about 16 feet long.
I did consider using the stainless tubes for MBT's on my sub early on but
went with a sleeker shape as it is now. A lot more work to fabricate the tanks I
have now but the sub will be much sleeker and hopefully faster.
I haven't calculated how much lift the tubes will provide at 16 feet long
yet, so I may need bigger diameter pontoons. I still plan on mounting a small (
20 horse ) outboard on my sub for surface transit, and use the pontoon
boat as a moving dock with BBQ, cooler, sun shade, and maybe some equipment
like generator and compressor.
