Experience a day on Grand Lake aboard spacious pontoons from Sail Grand Waterfront: 10‑passenger boats with 115‑hp four‑stroke motors that let you cruise scenic shorelines, slip into a sheltered cove for a picnic or swim, fish off the deck, or tow tubes for a family run.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

Room for Ten, Power to Roam

Each pontoon seats up to 10 people and is driven by a 115‑horsepower, four‑stroke motor—enough power to cruise shorelines and reach favorite coves across Grand Lake.

THE ACTIVITIES

Picnics, Swimming, Fishing, Tubing

Pack a lunch and a rod: the rentals are designed for low‑stress days on the water—picnicking in quiet coves, swimming from the deck, casting for lake species, or towing tubes with optional add‑ons.

THE FLEXIBILITY

Half‑ to Full‑Day Options

Rentals range from short excursions to all‑day outings so you can match a morning fish to a full‑day family run—choose the duration that fits your group and plans.

What the day feels like

What a Day on the Pontoon Feels Like

Load up a cooler, gather friends or family, and set out from the marina: the day moves between low‑key cruising along Grand Lake’s shorelines, anchoring in a shallow cove for swimming or lunch, breaking out fishing gear from the spacious deck, or hooking up tubes for a tow—all on a single, comfortable platform.
