Has anyone had any experience with ODC 1220 pontoon boat (Outdoor Discovery Country?). On sale at Cabela's for $1000, Original price was $2000.

It is a two-men, converts to one-man, 20" diameter PVC, 30-gauge PVC bladders covered in 2nd layer of snag-proof 30-gauge PVC with a 420 denier nylon liner, cap 600 lbs., 12 1/2 ft long, 8ft oars, adjustable oar lock, aluminum frame is powder coated to protect against rust ... Life time guarantee.

Thanks

UFK-
Dont have any personel experience with the boat myself but I can that by looking at it, it looks kind of cheasy.

For a little more then $1000 asking price, you can get by two pontoon boats of excellent quality. Two Buck's Bag Southforks will run you $1200 plus tax.

I've floated an older ODC. They key to remember on this boat is "rated at 600lbs". Now, that's REALLY stretching it for a 2 man boat. My old 9' boat was rated at 700lbs. If you want to blow $1000, at least get a steelheader. But if you have that type of money, custom build one. Depends on what you want to do with the boat. You may be able to get buy with one MUCH cheaper.

Thanks guys. I am a sucker for 1/2 off deals and a 2 man pontoon comes in handy once in a blue moon so I wanted to get a new toy!
