I have owned a 25' 2001 Bennington tri-toon since new and still love it...no complaints. It's very well made. It has a 130 HP Honda and does about 30 mph which is more than fast enough because everyone is out in the open. Tritoons with large logs are a must if you plan on going out in the Broads with a load of folks. The third log also gives more floatation for the larger motors and bigger "parties". I had a full enclosure built for the back half of the boat and that definitely extends our season. Other points made by others are good ones. Also get one with the popup changing room for a porta-potty for your passengers if you go on cruises where people are consuming any kind of beverages. It's been a lifesaver.

Pontoon and Deck Boat (PDB) magazine current issue has a nice review of the better pontoons, especially the newer performance hulls.
