Kids, Elderly, and Handicap Accessible

Pontoon boats are much sturdier and roomier than other standard fishing boats on Okeechobee, such as flats boats, Jon boats, or bass boats. Pontoon boats don’t rock as much, have sides making it safer for young kids, and have much more sitting areas for those looking for a relaxing experience.

Because of the excess floor space and set up of pontoon boats, accommodating those in a wheelchair or any handicap is no problem.
