Hey, welcome to the forum and the world of pontooning! When I was going to retire I want to get either a Harley or a pontoon. I have been riding motorcycles since before having a license to drive, but decided it may be safer going with a pontoon. I don't for one minute regret my decision going with a pontoon, since I live to fish, and love being on the water. My whole family gets to enjoy the boat, along with the fishing, tubing, and cruising. I know you guys are going to enjoy the pontoon, and we will be waiting to see some pictures when you post them.

I am a retired police officer from New Mexico, I bought in 1996 a Part Hut 30 and sold it a few years ago and regret it, then I got into the Harley Scene for a few years ago started rv ing and bought a fifth wheel. So something was missing a boat. I bought a fixer upper in Arizona at lake havasau, brought it home and played a few years with it , but I bought the plywood and the carpet and everything needed to redo. I'm 69 and I started thinking for next spring, then this covid hit and I lost interest already for next spring so I sold it with all extras. Well that didn't last long , I found a Sun track party Cruiser 32 in very good shape , may need some TLC, but I'm willing to tackle. The help I need from you all is I'm wanting to do the exterior panels, carpet get more familiar with the 3.0 4 cylinder merc inboard for parts or anything else I might need.so if anyone has the resources where I can find anything and everything for this project . I'd be in debited, Excuse my typing, Thanks
