Look carefully and prepare for a second look when peering beneath the deck of the new LX3 Tri-log Performance Sun Catcher pontoon from G3 Boats. A third log has been added and this innovative design contributes to the pontoon boat’s performance for increased speed and improved stability in rough water. Now look atop the fully carpeted 8 1/2-foot wide deck to discover the most luxurious and comfortable family pontoon boat imaginable.
Two sizes are available, a 22′ model rated for up to a Yamaha175 horsepower outboard and a 25′ version with a 225 horsepower rating. These pontoons have plenty of dependable power for cruising, water skiing and family fun.
The three U-shaped.100-gauge 23″ by 25″ jumbo logs have smooth straight sides and more volume than conventional 24″ round logs. Filled with Maxi-Float foam, these logs provide the maximum floatation and a smooth ride. Each log is reinforced with double-plated .100-gauge nosecones and the .125-gauge wings on the nose provide added splash protection. The boat is equipped with a full-length under-deck performance shield.
The deck is built on heavy-duty, C-channel deck extrusions with 16-inch centers and through-bolted floors for added strength. The upgraded heavy-duty all-aluminum motor pod provides superior support for the higher horsepower engines.
The LX3 Cruise pontoon offers plush living from bow to stern. Two forward chaise lounge-style couches provide plush seating and extra dry storage for passengers while on the water. For added comfort, the wrap-around lounge provides party-style seating as well as dry under-seat storage with the “rain-drain” channel. The ABS dinette table with cup holders is movable for placement in the front or rear seating areas. A double-wide “Sun Catcher” tanning deck and pop-up privacy enclosure are located at the rear along with an aft 4-step boarding ladder. Lift-up gates provide convenient entry and exit to the deck and eliminate gate rattle when closed. The color coordinated Bimini top protects all on-board from sun or rain.
The fiberglass-reinforced deluxe console has new styling and graphics and is rigged with a tinted windshield, Yamaha controls and cables, hydraulic steering, full instrumentation and a Sony Marine AM/FM/CD stereo with four speakers. A 34-quart cooler fits inside the console base and the hinged door access prevents the cooler from sliding into the walkway.
Ample storage can be found beneath all seating and the flip deck entry allows easy access to the engine. The 30-gallon built-in fuel tank provides hours of cruising without a fuel stop. For convenience the Sun Catcher pontoon boat has navigation lights, courtesy lights, fire extinguisher, boarding from the front, rear and side and much more.
Like all G3 boats, Sun Catcher pontoon boats are powered by Yamaha outboard engines. Buyers of a G3 boat, motor and trailer package also receive the G3 advantage package that includes free resident freshwater fishing licenses for the buyer for three years.
