Tubing and Tooning Buyers' Guide
#44
Top Notch. Carol Olsen in Brigham is the owner. The toons are Dura Bladders. Best way to describe them, they are like the Tupperware garbage cans. A hard plastic but flexable. They do not go flat like other pontoons but you can push the air out. So in other words they do not fold up.
There is a fine powder in them so if you get a pin hole, it is self sealing. Frames are very well made. Nice PVC cover for the toons.
I had an Echo which is the small 4' model,but mine had covers on the toons, a padded seat and was red. A delux model.

Things to point out, they are heavier than a lot of other pontoons, but again it is the material. You will be hard pressed to poke a hole in one of these.
The seat has two nice heavy straps holding the back up which make the seat easy to adjust as in tilt back if you need to.
The rockers are pretty big. They are designed for river running but as her ad reads, also smaller footprint makes it easy to turn. But you are also limited to what you can put on the back because of the rockers. If you choose to put a motor and battery on, you will need to slide the frame forward.

Quality is top notch
