New guy from Oklahoma

#1 Post by Kbirdjr » Thu Jun 02, 2011 1:38 pm

Hi all, great looking forum you have here. I am not only new to pontoon boats, I am new to boating in general. My wife and I recently bought a 28' 1985 Kayot that we be staying at lake Texoma. We have 3 small children ranging from 9 months to 7yrs old so the pontoon seemed to be the best choice for us because of all the room. We took it out for the first time Memorial day weekend and had a blast. Can't wait until the next outing.

OK, here are a couple of pics. These were taken by the guy I bought it from. I have since polished the pontoons, replaced the hard top with a bimini, and installed a stereo system. I didn't get any pictures of it before it went to the lake. Maybe I'll remember take some more pics the next time I am at the lake.
