I reckon I miscalculated the top weight. We launched, caught a wind and over she went. I got to reconfigure things.

That's terrible Wal, I know how much work and thought you put into that thing.
Hope everyone is okay and you were able to "right the ship".

Dang Wayne, that sucks!! I assume everyone is ok, looks like you picked a windy day to test it. It didn't look top heavy, so I guess the wind alone did it. Maybe take some height off of it, and it will catch less wind???

That's some seriously scary [censored]. Flipped upside down. Under water. In a steel cage.

Can't say I've ever seen a pontoon boat flipped, thank goodness no one was hurt,

Wow! I thought that was going on a small pond!

Lot of work. Hope you get it corrected.

I told you that framing was to heavy, that was piss poor planning on your part with this wind also. At least I don't have to hear about that dang bird flaring blind anymore.
