[font "Times New Roman"][size 3]I just bought a ODC 1220, and a Northfork MeKenzie Drifter X2. I was wondering if anyone has put on some type of rub guard on the bottom of pontoons, to help with extending the life of the pontoons. Any insight would be great thanks…[/size][/font]

[cool][#0000ff]Most quality toons have heavy PVC bottoms to help in this regard, but you can't drag them behind a vehicle and have them hold up (joking).[/#0000ff]

[#0000ff]If you anticipate a lot of dragging over concrete or rocks, you might think about setting up a single wheel pontoon truck. Come on over to the float tubing board for pics.[/#0000ff]

Thanks, I am working on attaching a mountain bike wheel to the frame. I guess it is just like buying new car (overly protective) once I get that first chip or scratch in it I will settle down a bit. Just looking to keep them nice for as long as possible.
