Did you recently purchase an older Pontoon Boat that could use a little help? I will show you how we turned our Project Pontoon Boat into a beautiful boat that our whole family can be proud of.
The entire project was not too expensive as we put no more than $2,000.00 into a boat that we were able to purchase locally for $3,500.00. The Pontoon Boat was chosen because it had a strong 1991 Outboard Two-Stroke motor and solid floorboards that did not need replaced. The Project Boat is a 1991 Lowe 18' Pontoon Boat and left a lot to be desired from an aesthetic standpoint. When it was all said and done, we were left with an amazing boat that people always have a hard time believing is over 20 Years Old.
Clean up those ugly Aluminum Pontoons and Railings. This will really make your boat shine (no pun intended) and make it look years newer. I frequently use a product called Nu Shine and it does a great job at eating away at the oxidation and build up on your boat. I can talk forever about ways to clean the aluminum on your boat but, you will just need to try different methods and see what works best for you. I have a feeling though, Nu Shine will probably be your favorite after you try it. It really does work like magic.
Black Streak Remover is a real life saver when trying to bring your Outboard Motor back to its original luster. It is very easy to use and does an amazing job of polishing up your 20 year old motor. Just spray the product on the outboard, let it sit on the surface and eat at the contaminants and then wipe it all off. Its that easy! Try it on some other spots and see what else you can clean up with it. You will be amazed!
The one major item that made the biggest difference in our project Pontoon Boat was replacing all of the old wood-grain looking aluminum railing panels that had old fading and chipping decals, with new smooth white panels. There are other color options besides white, I just felt white was a nice neutral color. This made our Project Pontoon Boat look almost like a new model boat by itself. I would not recommend that you try this unless you are extremely handy and love to torture yourself. I had no idea what I was getting into when I started, but I was able to finish the panels in one weekend with the help of a good friend. The total for replacing the Pontoon Boat Panels came in at around $150.00 for the aluminum. I simply purchased Aluminum Trim Coil and cut it to size with metal shears. After the panels are installed, apply the Pontoon Graphics of you're choosing and you will now have a more modern looking Pontoon Boat.
