appy April Fools’ Day everyone! Here at PDB magazine we all love a good prank and a good ol’ laugh. In fact, we just like having fun. Luckily for us, boating and fun mix well.
That’s why we thought it would be cool to round up a few fun and unusual pontoon boats to celebrate April Fools’ Day all month long. Check them out!
Sauntoon
Ever feel like relaxing in a sauna on the lake? Well, we’re pleased to introduce you to the custom-built Sauntoon II from Loonie Toons Pontoons & Powersports in Desbarats, Ontario. As the name suggests, it’s a sauna built on a triple pontoon chassis.
Loonie Toons first built the original Sauntoon five years ago and have now made the unique floating sauna, the Sauntoon II, available to buy. It’s built completely from cedar and comes equipped with a wood-burning sauna stove.
It also includes JC Manufacturing’s TriToon chassis and comes equipped with navigation lights and custom mood lighting. Plus, they can also customize the Sauntoon to fit your preferences. With this unique pontoon, the lake is even more relaxing.
If you’re looking for a unique pontoon party on the water, CLE Tiki in Cleveland, Ohio, has you covered. You can hop on the CLE Tiki Barge I or Tiki Barge II, tiki-style boats with thatched tiki rooftops and comfy cushioned benches for seating.
They’ve also got standing room with high top tables and a BYOB bar. All of it comes arranged on a plush turf deck that allows you to experience the Flats and spectacular views of Cleveland on this fun and unique party boat.
These Tiki Barges are perfect for celebrating special occasions and you can even rent out an entire boat for a private event. No matter what, you can expect some good music and fun times with plenty of drinks in hand. It makes for one of the most tropical experiences you can have in Cleveland!
You can have up to 30 guests on each 2-hour cruise. The cruises include ice, coolers, Bluetooth sound systems, a bathroom on board, a designated driver (captain), a bartender and a tropical boat to party on, of course. Come find your own slice of paradise in Cleveland, right on the river!
Remember as a kid hearing the jingle of the ice cream truck and then running outside to get some ice cream? Well, get ready to take that sort of experience to a whole new level with the Ice Cream Float in Pompano Beach, Fla.
This 20-foot, hot-pink ice cream pontoon boat with a striped Bimini top navigates the lakes and canals of Pompano Beach, Lighthouse Point, Deerfield Beach and Boca Raton, ready to sell ice cream, drinks, snacks and ice. Naturally, it also plays the classic ice cream truck jingle to get your attention.
The Ice Cream Float comes stocked with 24 varieties of pre-packaged treats that are common on ice cream trucks. You’ll find the perfect pick-me-up on those hot days at the lake. All you have to do is flag them down from the dock and they’ll stop so you can get a frosty treat.
You won’t want to miss the chance to snag a snack from this one-of-a-kind ice cream pontoon boat if you ever find yourself in the Pompano Beach area.
Next up is the Jungle Float. This essentially gives you a playground on the water, complete with trampolines, swings, slides and platforms to leap from. This pontoon boat will bring out your inner child.
On the Jungle Float, you can leap from a 12-foot platform down to an Olympic-grade trampoline to launch you as high as 20 feet above the water. If that seems a little too daring to start with, check out the Monkey Jump first, which is a 6-foot platform for leaping into the water.
Don’t forget the smaller trampoline, the Monkey Bounce, that allows you to jump more than 8 feet into the lake. There’s also a 12-foot-high dive platform, giving you plenty of options when it comes to jumping into the water.
You can also swing off the Jungle Float on the Tarzan Swing or use the Jungle Slide to find your way into the water. Whatever you choose on the Jungle Float, you’re in for a good time at the lake.
If you’re down for a party on a fun and unique boat on Lake Havasu in Arizona, you’re definitely going to want to look up Cruisin’ Tikis Havasu. Their boats have a tiki hut, complete with a thatched roof and bar, right in the center.
They offer a variety of cruises, including their most popular, Bridgewater Channel and Thompson Bay, which is around 90 minutes. This allows you to cruise the Channel, visit the Naked Turtle Bar, swing by the Nautical Resort and take a swim or simply party with everybody on the boat in the Channel.
These Tiki Huts are perfect for private parties and special events such as birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties, engagements, sunset cruises and more. You can even get married on one of the Tiki boats.
The cruises are all BYOB so that means that you’re permitted to bring the alcoholic beverage of your choice along with food or snacks. Ice chests are also welcome.
So if you ever find yourself at Lake Havasu in search of a good time, be sure to check out Cruisin’ Tikis Havasu. You’re sure to have a smashing time on their Tiki Hut boats.
