Two men stand in front of their respective drawing tables. They are creating a design for a saltwater safe pontoon boat to sell to their customers. On one board, is the design of a pontoon boat already in production, with a little note scribbled on it to change the flooring on top of the boat. On the other man’s drawing board, is an empty sheet of paper, and his pen frantically sketching and designing a new pontoon boat from the ground up. This is what sets Fiesta Marine apart from it’s competitors, the fact that we did not change the blueprints for a pontoon boat, we redesigned them from the ground, eh.. water up.
Pontoon boats weren’t designed for saltwater, so trying to change their design for saltwater is simply not enough. Fiesta Marine understood this concept, and so instead of trying to change the design of the original pontoon boats, they redesigned each part of the pontoon boat to turn it into a true saltwater vessel. From the signature pontoons to the walls and doors on the deck, every part of a Fiesta saltwater pontoon boat has been created to withstand the sometimes harsh conditions of the Florida sea community.
Well, harsh for boats at least. While we love the hot beach days and the feel of the seawater around our toes, these can have adverse effects on a normal pontoon boat. The salt in the water is corrosive, and the heat does not agree with most forms of glue used on boats or in general. Fiesta didn’t just stop at fixing these problems though, they went the extra mile to make their pontoon boats safe for saltwater, and another extra mile to make them exceptional pontoon boats.
Along with making adjustments to their design, including higher quality materials and more thorough building techniques, they also included more bulkheads in their pontoons and more intimate ways of welding to keep the pontoons secure. This makes them ideal for practically any condition you can think of. You can feel safe piloting your Fiesta pontoon through through salt or freshwater, high tide or low tide, day time cruising or a nighttime cruise, if anything goes wrong, you know your pontoon boat can make it back to shore.
So when it comes to deciding on your pontoon boat, Fiesta’s designs and dedication make for the ideal choice in both fresh and saltwater. It gives you the ability to choose where you go in your boat, and the peace of mind of knowing it can handle the ride.
