The best pontoon on the market starts with the strongest frame in the industry. Come see the patented V-toon technology exclusively featured on Manitou’s. What is V-toon? VOasis 25 Manitou Pontoon ready to find a new home! toon is adding a third tube bolted to the deck. Normally, pontoons come with two tubes attached to the deck; but not Manitou’s. It’s the precise positioning, along with strategically placed positive angle lifting strakes that results in the exact degree of deadrise and water displacement needed to simulate the standard V-hull. Extensive research has confirmed that the V-toon will detrimentally affect ride quality, stability, acceleration, speed and hauling.
