Choose a boat around the day you want
Pontoon-style boats suit a group that wants to spend time together: a relaxed cruise from your vacation home, lunch on the water, or an afternoon alternating between swimming and the shaded seats. You do not need to plan a watersports session to make a full day of it.
Surf & Sport's published fleet includes Bennington and Crest pontoon and tritoon boats. Features include Bluetooth stereos, Bimini shade, swim ladders and lounge seating. The precise layout and passenger capacity depend on the boat you reserve, so use the live booking calendar rather than assuming every model has the same equipment.
Pontoon or tritoon: what are you actually booking?
A traditional pontoon has two flotation tubes beneath the deck; a tritoon adds a third. People often search for a pontoon rental when a tritoon is the boat that best fits their group. Our tritoon fleet pairs that familiar open seating with 150HP outboard power for cruising and approved tubing activities.
Our published guest limits are up to 8 on pontoons and up to 12 on tritoons. Count everyone in your party, including children, and confirm both the passenger and weight limits for your selected boat. A larger deck does not mean unlimited passengers or gear.
Pack for your crew, not for a boat launch
We provide life jackets, with youth and infant sizes available on request at no additional charge. Tell us the sizes you need before arrival and check the fit at the handoff. Bring sun protection, towels, drinking water and a secure place for your phone and keys.
Our published tritoon tube add-on is $35; confirm the current price and availability with your reservation. Tubing and wakesurfing are different activities: choose the Tigé wakesurf boat if your goal is to surf a boat-generated wave. Do not attempt wakesurfing behind an outboard-powered pontoon or tritoon.
One lake day or a boat for your vacation
For a one-day outing, start with your date, group size and preferred boat. For a longer stay, select the full rental period and ask us to review the dock at your Lake Norman home. Delivery eligibility, rental minimums, handoff times and any delivery charge are confirmed for your boat, dates and address.
Pontoon and tritoon fuel is charged at the end of the rental to refill the boat, including fuel used for delivery and pickup. Compare the complete quote, not just the displayed rental rate. Online availability and the terms of your confirmed reservation govern the booking.
