Posts #4,6 and 7 lead me to believe that a leaking pontoon is not as unusual as might be the case with other types of boats. Two weeks ago, the folks working on my dock called a welder out from Gilford to fix their leaking pontoon on my beach. Unusual to me, so I give 4,6 &7 credibility. The earlier posts refer to a (singular) drain plug. If they are all compartmented, wouldn't there be several plugs, one for each compartment? Plugs on the bottom don't make sense to me, so, access from the top to pump out each compartment?).
