What is the length and engine size of a Non-Fishing Pontoon?

• A. 17'/50HPS
• B. 22'/50HPS
• C. 25'/50HPS
• D. 22'/40HPS

Answer: (B)

Non-fishing pontoons are defined by a specific size and engine power to set clear operating expectations. The standard configuration for this class is a 22-foot length paired with a 50 horsepower engine. This combination provides adequate performance for casual cruising while staying within the category’s defined limits. Other options mix length and power in ways that don’t align with the non-fishing designation: a shorter length with the same horsepower would suggest a different class or utilization, a longer length with the same power could push the vessel into a different category, and a 22-foot length with 40 horsepower would be underpowered for typical use even though the boat’s size remains the same.
