20Ft Tri-Toon ?

I 'had' a 20' pontoon with a 75hp Yamaha for 5 years. I hated Merideth Bay on weekends, and the Broads on windy days. But it served its purpose.

I went to a 22' tritoon with a 150 Merc a couple of years back and love it.

Although I still try to stay out of Merideth Bay in the south end off Weirs on weekends if at all possible. Way too much traffic, way too many ijiots, and way too much chop.

IMHO a 20' Tri would be the minimum to get around and you'll be looking to replace it after a year or two for a couple more feet. That 2 feet will usually get you a better swim deck as 18 and 20's tend to remove the front deck to give seating room.
