    Still Looking but getting closer

    and to that end is anyone here familiar with Coach Pontoons?
    I have a deal in front of me for a 2019 Coach powered with a Honda 250HP that is very attractive.

    And thats the other thing, I have owned Mercury and Evinrudes over the years, never a Honda.
    Most say they are dependable but those who tell me that have never owned one?

    I have a small Honda motor on a pond boat that is awesome. My Honda Goldwing has never let me down after 25 years, great motor. I have a Honda generator and once owned a Honda car many years that was trouble free. I don't think you will go wrong with the boat motor you are referring to, just my person opinion and experiences with Honda products.

    CG is getting 6,000 + hrs out of their Honda powered patrol boats. I would not back away from a Honda on a pontoon boat, assuming all else is in order.

    If you want to read about Hondas drop down to their Motor Forum. It's the one with only 298 threads. It's lonely in there, not much to complain about.

    Thanks everyone.
    I finally pulled the trigger and my new Ranger is going to have a garage pal.
    New 2018 StarCraft SLS3 with wake board tower, upgraded Kicker 8 speaker plus woofer, and of course a Honda 250
