My Dad has a 24' pontoon with large logs, he has a 75 hp mercury on it and we have pulled two people on waterskies with it. I have used this a bit and its fine. Nice family boat, although we do not fish, I think it would make a good platform to fish from. You get sprayed in rough weather a little, and if your having to be out when its raining you get very little protection even with a roof. But then I get just a little more in my runabout.

I think the 24' would have been better with a 115 Hp outboard if your gonna water ski with it. Just that extra ump.

Good luck with your choices.
