Houseboat Project I was just curious. Couldn't tell from the pics but was assuming it was 2 pontoons. With that it would be good for 11,775#. 7,770# to leave 1/3 out the water.

Re: Houseboat Project Got an estimate on cost of the building? Or info on where you got that one? That's pretty much what I plan on building and buying one would make it much quicker

Re: Houseboat Project I will post pics of the inside when it is finished. The building came from Coast to Coast Carports and Cost about $ 3300. I have not seen one like this around just thought it would be a good idea to keep it Light.
