The Pontoon Water Glide acts as a hydrofoil to lift pontoon boats and offer better planing and handling. It is constructed of composite material and filled with marine-grade polyurethane foam to give the boat an additional 684 pounds of flotation. The Pontoon Water Glide reduces the amount of pontoon surface area in contact with water to reduce drag while offering a center pivot point to allow for higher speeds, tighter turning and improved performance overall.

He loved it so much that he bought the company!
