Frequently Asked Questions
1. Why use a hand-control motor on a pontoon?
Hand-control tiller models offer immediate tactile response and a cleaner deck without foot pedal cables. The telescoping handle ensures you can steer comfortably from the bow seating area.
2. Is the 52-inch shaft length right for my boat?
The 52" shaft is the standard for most pontoons, ensuring the prop remains deep enough for full thrust even when passengers are seated in the rear of the boat.
