28. Yikes that Looks Bad
The furniture has also seen better days. From the cheap vinyl to the rust and grime, we’re pretty sure no one wants to relax on this pontoon. There’s definitely a lot of work to be done.

26. Dirty isn’t the right word…
The state of decay is strong with this one. From the rotted wood to the rusty framework, we’re shocked anyone would invest in this hunk of junk. However, the couple was determined to make this the boat of their dreams. Sorry, we ain’t seeing it.

24. Transported Home
The first step was to get the boat home. Thankfully, this would be the easiest part of this pontoon boat’s journey from ugly duckling to pontoon swan!

22. No More Fencing
The gates were removed next along with the fencing, stripping the pontoon boat down to its base and frame. We have to admit that our faith in this renovation is beginning to fade. The boat is looking more and more like scrap metal as it’s stripped down. Hopefully, our faith will be restored soon.

20. Back to the Basics
As you can see, the boat is now stripped down to its framework and, surprisingly, it’s in pretty good shape. The couple made sure to remove all the rust and treat it with a waterproof coating so it would maintain seaworthiness for years to come.

18. A Restored Framework
After the electrical wiring was installed, the base was finally finished. It certainly looks almost good as new. We are beginning to get excited at the potential this pontoon boat could have. Let’s hope we get invited for the maiden voyage.

16. Looking Good…
That is one fine looking pontoon boat! With the base done, it would be time to move on to the flooring. Just wait until you see what’s next!

14. No Bubbles Please!
Next, the vinyl was smoothed out to make sure there were no air pockets or tears. The last thing you want is moisture trapped in air bubbles and your flooring peeling up. Doesn’t it look incredible?

12. New Fencing in the Works
Ta-da! The restored side fencing. The gates were repurposed and the aluminum provided a new sturdy foundation. These seriously look brand new! We have to admit we are quite impressed with the craftsmanship that is on display here.

10. Piecing Things Together
Next, the couple installed the fencing back into place. It was important to make sure that all of the pieces fit back together properly after they were revamped. Thankfully, there were no problems and it was a simple installation.

8. Final Electric Check
Next up would be the final electrical check to ensure the new space for the battery was up to code. This boat is definitely getting the five-star treatment. We can’t wait to see how it turns out!

6. Aye, Aye Cap’n!
The captain’s steering station is finally on board. Since the old one was so badly damaged, a brand new setup was ordered that incorporated the latest technology. We definitely approve of this upgrade, and that steering stick is so much cooler than the traditional wheel!

4. Furniture Fun
The furniture is finally installed! Talk about an upgrade. The colors are absolutely perfect and we can already imagine so many fun days out on the water with family and friends. Could you use a few more passengers? We’re totally free this weekend!

2. There She Blows!
After weeks of hard work, the moment of truth has arrived! The pontoon is being moved to the lake for its first time on the water! We really hope it floats, because it would be quite the buzzkill for it to sink like a rock after all of the time and effort put into it.
