THE BOAT

2024 Crest 20' Pontoon — room for ten

A modern 20-foot Crest pontoon powered by a 90 hp motor carries up to ten people, offering stable, comfortable cruising and the horsepower to tow light tubers.

THE ACTIVITY

Tubing for lighter participants

Tubing is permitted but only for persons under 100 pounds, making it ideal for lighter riders and family-style tow fun under the operator’s safety rules.

THE SETTING

Lake Michigan cruising, weather permitting

The pontoon is allowed on Lake Michigan when conditions are suitable, and rentals can be short trips or extended outings depending on your plan and the day’s forecast.
