Pontoon boats are versatile vessels with roomy decks and comfortable seating, which is why they are perfect for family outings. They offer the stability you need to enjoy several watersports activities, including swimming and wakeboarding.

Keep reading about a few of our favorite activities that you can enjoy on your pontoon. And, if you need more ideas, visit Revolutions Power Sports in Grand Forks, ND, where we happily welcome our friends from Fargo and West Fargo.

1. Picnic on the Water

We all love to go on picnics to spend time with our families and soak up the sunshine. However, the next time you plan a similar outing, ditch the park for a body of water near you. Your pontoon will offer you the perfect space and stability you need and even provide you the chance to go sunbathing or swimming afterward.

2. Movie Nights

How about using your pontoon boat for the next movie outing for your family? Use your laptop or a projector (if your friends are joining in), bring along a few blankets and pillows, and add some popcorn and sodas to enjoy a unique movie experience.

3. Fishing Trips

If you love going on fishing trips, you’ll love the space and comfortable seating arrangement on your pontoon. The storage area in these vessels is sufficient to hold the different pieces of gear you’ll need on your trips, and you can easily cast your lines from anywhere on your boat. The padded seats will keep you comfortable while you’re waiting for the fish to bite.

Bring along your friends and hold a mini competition, where the one who catches the most fish will win a prize!

4. Board Game Tournaments

Make the most of your pontoon boat's stability to host board game tournaments, and be prepared to win loads of compliments from participants and other boaters nearby. Use foldable card tables or dinner trays to set up the games and choose games with fewer pieces to minimize post-game clean-up.

5. Host Gatherings

Your pontoon can offer you the perfect venue to host the next meeting of your church group or book club. Discuss an ongoing project or plan future assignments while cruising across the water. The serenity of the ambience will help you come up with more creative ideas for your ventures, and your guests will love the novel idea of meeting aboard a pontoon.

6. Throw a Party

Use your pontoon boat to socialize with your friends at your favorite body of water. Whether it is a birthday party or a simple dinner party, your vessel will have sufficient room for your guests. You can decorate it to your liking and use your Bluetooth® speaker to play some music for your party.

7. Participate in Watersports Activities

Pontoons are an excellent option for many watersports activities like inner tubing for young children and wakeboarding and water skiing for the adult members of your family. However, before you go on an adventure trip, ensure that your pontoon boat has the horsepower for your activities.

On that note, we’d like you to visit Revolutions Power Sports to look at our selection of boats for sale. We can show you our latest collection and suggest models for your budget. We’re in Grand Forks, ND, where we proudly serve those from Fargo and West Fargo, so stop by today.
