Forester Pontoons - Opinions???

[311Hemi]

Can anyone say anything about Forester Pontoons? Just started looking into them but know nothing about them! Any help would be great.

I bought a new one at the Sportsmans Show in Mpls 3 years ago. They are made up in Hill City (or Grand Rapids). I had mine delivered down to the Mille Lacs area and I haven't had a problem since. Granted, they are not a high end pontoon, but I bought the 20' Fishing model and have been happy with it. The furniture, deck, pontoons and live well have all held up well. I also went with the 40 horse upgrade and later installed a stereo system in the drivers counsel.

I bought a 19 foot fishing model this spring with a 40HP Bigfoot four stroke, livewell and cover and trailer. Very reasonable price. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles, but I could care less about that. We love it - trailer is great - so easy to load and unload and go from lake to lake, even though we keep in on our own lake most of the time. The 40HP pops it on a plane almost immediately. We have grown boys, and have even used it for single tubing (with driver and spotter in pontoon).

I'd buy another one...totally satisfied. If you are looking for lots of bells and whistles then move up to something else - if you are looking for something good, but economical to buy, I'd recommend one.
