    Default Pontoon Boat


    Here are the pictures of the pontoon we rigged for putting out crappie beds. You can see the beds and how we weight them down. This may not be perfect but you can really do a lot of work off of one of these. Any suggestions how to make it better would be appreciated.

    Looks pretty good to me. My only suggestion would be the addition of a LARGE cooler!

    That's a nice rig for droppin' condos. Do you have trouble with them wanting to flip over on the way off the boat? Or do you just hold 'em down and push real hard?
    I think I got one...

    We have a sawmill close by. As far as them flipping over, we have had two flip over before we figured out how to put the weights on them. As you can see from the picture, we spread them a part from the front to the back. When you first push it off, it looks like it will flip but as soon as the back edge goes over, the weights on the back pull it down level.

    Man that's just sweet. I have a toon that I just thought was good for dropping condos. The rollers on the sides are absolutely over the top. You just may have stolen the title of King Condo from Jerry Blake and Darryl Morris.

    Wish you would post some pics of your condo dropping days.

    Where's a good place to start looking for those concrete test cylinders?
