World’s Fastest Pontoon Boat Hits 114MPH on the Lake

Just like on land, when it comes to the water, there are different types of boats for different types of objectives. For example, if you want to go fishing, you can buy yourself a variety of different fishing boats, if you want to go fast, a cigarette boat might be for you, and if you want to maybe have a leisurely cruise, picking up a pontoon boat might be your best bet.

This time, we catch up with the action at the Lake of the Ozarks Shootout that takes one of these particular categories of boat and yanks one of the occupants straight out of it as the efforts behind this pontoon boat had a completely different purpose in mind for their vessel than what the platform was originally designed for.

Traditionally, you might see a pontoon boat cruising along at a top speed around 30 mph or so, maybe a touch more with a little bit bigger engine but this pontoon boat is cranking the power up way beyond that. In fact, this custom-built craft was able to manage up 114 mph on the lake. That’s insane to say the least! I’m just imagining a gust of wind catching the deck in the wrong way!

Check out the footage below that has this thing absolutely soaring its way straight into the Guinness Book of World Records. Riding along on something like this truly has to be a mind-numbing experience. I couldn’t even imagine being on a pontoon boat that turns the speed dial up to 11 like this!
