Pontoon Boat & Deck Boat Forum

Hi all , after owning 5 boats in the last 4 years , the last being a Ranger 620 with a 250 Merc Verado, I am finally the proud owner of a new 2012 South Bay 522CR. My first pontoon and for some reason the boat I have been most excited about getting. I upgraded from the packaged Merc 90 4s to a Merc 115 4s.

Not quite sure what to do first other than enjoy it. I pick it up Sat. and am heading up to Castle Rock Lake in Wi. for the Memorial day weekend. I am from Kenosha , WI. and have a camper on a seasonal site in the area.

Welcome and your gonna love toonin

Welcome and congrats on the new boat! Just got our first pontoon as well and we're loving every minute of it. Go get it wet!

Welcome, glad to have you with us. don't forget to post pictures, we love pictures

smoker... congratulations on the new southbay.... have a great time this weekend and of course, do not forget to post some

Tooning is awesome! Welcome to our zoo!

Welcome, your gonna love that South Bay we love ours, good move getting the 115 I never heard anybody say "I wish I got the smaller motor." Don't forget to post some pics.

Welcome. I think you will find Pontooning to be both fun & relaxing. I had a runabout & Jetski before my Pontoon. They were fun but it seems that a Pontoon is much more versatile. Enjoy.

Well , got 8 hrs on the boat this past weekend and loved every minute of it.

Welcome!

Nice lookin rig

Thanks all, yeah the dog didnt want to get off the boat. All I would say is boat in the morning and she would go nuts. She loves it as much as my wife.

Sorry for the large pics. Feel free to down size. I never was good at posting them. Actually my wife would probably not be too happy about the pic being such a close up .

Smoker... beautiful boat my friend... and the whole summer ahead of you to enjoy it!!
