    And you thought bass boats were expensive

    A darned pontoon! For $289, 0000! And that's a used boat!

    It comes with a trailer. Decent price. Are you picking it up or having it delivered?

    Pound for pound, I think technical poling skiffs may be the most costly. A 17'er can hit 6 figure price tags, and most of them run 50-60 hp motors. And no trolling motors. Example: Chittum

    From a boat show I attended earlier this year. The salt water rigs make bass boats look inexpensive.

    Look at the two outboards hanging on the back. Those alone will buy you a nice glass boat.

    Takes a lot of innovation to make a 17 or 18' boat silent and poleable in 5-6" of water and also be able to run across the bay to get to the flat. My hull weighs 540 lbs on my 18' boat.

    I bet it has exquisite footrests.

    Think of how many naugahydes they had to kill to make all the furniture on that thing!

    It's only money. I fish a 300 acre lake here in Michigan. A guy has one like this on a hoist. 2--450R Mercs. Neighbor said he runs wide open up and down the lake to piss everyone off.

    If it makes anyone feel better I watched a brand new 32’ Bennington with a 400 Verado smoke a mid-lake shallow boulder pile last weekend.

    The half dozen or so millennials aboard all did the “lean over and look” move at the stern while the driver trimmed up. I was laughing my ass off; my wife was a little more compassionate.

    Chittum is what I did to my pants when I saw the price of those boats. Lol

    To answer the OP I still think bass boats are expensive. Probably because I’m poor.
