Default Bow Rider VS. Pontoon Boat

I am throwing this question out to the only experts I know who arent trying to sell me something. We currently have a 19 ft 2002 Crownline Bowrider. (that the folks at Channel told us was a great lake boat- yeah when nobody else is out there... maybe) We love being out on the lake but are tired of getting beat up in the 19 ft. My question: We can not afford the money they are charging for a 24- 26 ft bowrider... so we are "considering" , actually I am considering, "HE" is not even discussing. The possibility of a 24 ft pontoon boat... How do they handle the chop on the lake- can you trailer them... pros and cons... educate me.... we are not out on the lake for speed we never go more than 28 - 30 in the bowrider... but after this weekend and about 45 tylenols I have had it with the 19 ft bowrider... so I am throwing this out to the forum and looking for some advise on what you would suggest..
