The boat is intended for groups of friends and families and is delivered to most lakes in the surrounding area, making it an option for anyone in the Annandale region looking to turn a lake day into a small‑boat festival.

What the day feels like

What the Day Feels Like

Expect a day that starts with a delivery and quick orientation, then opens into an easy rhythm of cruising, anchoring, jumping and sliding. The double‑decker layout lets groups spread out — one cluster on the upper deck, a handful cooling off at the slide — and the slide itself becomes the social hub: quick runs, triumphant splashes and repeated returns to the ladder. Because the operator delivers the boat to your selected lake, the experience begins the moment the pontoon is set in the water and lasts until the operator’s agreed‑upon pickup arrangements.

Suitability
