Construction & Components

  • Enlarged 23" x 25" U-shaped pontoon logs w/ Maxi-Float foam and smooth, straight sides have higher volume than 23" round logs for maximum flotation and superior ride. See Sun Catcher Construction link for more information.
  • All aluminum motor pod is bolted to pontoon cross-members with 12 point attachment and large diameter bolts for added strength and rigidity.
  • Fuel Separator helps to eliminate excess water from gas and gives peace of mind and consistent performance.
  • Marine grade pressure treated plywood deck has limited lifetime warranty for years of care-free family boating.
  • U-shaped logs provide a secure platform for extruded c-channel 16" on-center through-bolted construction. Round logs rely on "M" brackets with less contact with the log to secure the deck.
  • Through bolted floors to deck extrusions, .100 gauge nose cones, and heavy duty deck extrusions on 16" centers are just a few of the extra touches that make the Sun Catcher Pontoon line the Best Value on the Water.
  • G3 ADVANTAGE WARRANTY adds value with an extended warranty on all external seams for the "duration of ownership" for the original retail purchaser. Limited five year bow to stern warranty transferable once within 5 years of purchase, and a limited lifetime warranty on the marine grade plywood deck material direct from the manufacturer gives you the best total warranty package in the industry.

Electrical

  • Breakers instead of fuses increase reliability and easy reset.
  • 12 volt receptacle comes in handy for plug-in accessories.
  • Navigation lights adds convenience and visibility.
  • Floor level interior courtesy lights help keep the interior easier to navigate in poor lighting.

Interior

  • Fire extinguisher, cleats, plenty of cup holders, and color-coordinated bimini tops are just a few of the outstanding amenities found on all Sun Catcher pontoons for the owner's comfort and convenience.
  • Upgraded 24 oz. marine grade snag-resistant carpet for comfort and superior wear life. (228 C)
  • Marine grade Vinyl floor for ease of cleaning and superior wear life. (228 C Vinyl)
