Tim,
    I got this message from another guy in the net. Just wanted to make sure 
you saw it. It is from Joe Zimmerman.
Hi Tim, Jamie has a good comment.  If you want the big engine, then
look at some of the deckboats available.  I have seen on alumunum
style which has two fishing seats in the front and can take a 200 hp
engine.  Has a canopy and the 'V ' type hull.  Its rather fast and is
also a good platform for a party, which includes children.  Not as
good as the pontoon boat, but would be better than a bass boat combo
(in my opinion).  The deckboat is higher in the water than the bass
boat designs, with more freeboard over the transum.
Regards Joe
