Pontoons are not pressurizes just water tight

A Pontoon is a floating platform usually provided at a tidal berth for ships. Also Marinas usually have pontoons for boats to moor at.
Pontoons are static floating structures. If they are to be moved then they would need towing.
Extremely big--the bridge across Lake Washington near Seattle is supported by pontoons.
There are many different types of pontoon boats, but I assume you're asking about your basic 18' rectangular boat with two or three aluminum pontoons. Most of these boats have 50-100 horsepower engines which will allow them to cruise around 15mph and top out around 20-25 mph.
Sure, there's no problem 'provided' that the rails, or guides, that the pontoons sit on are correctly positioned. The length of the trailer shouldn't have any affect on its ability to carry a smaller boat if its pontoons fit properly.
A pontoon boat is a flattish boat that relies on pontoons to float. Pontoons may be used on boats, rafts, barges, docks, float planes or seaplanes. Pontoons may support a platform, creating a raft. A raft supporting a house-like structure is a houseboat. A fixed platform can be used as a dock. Common boat designs are a catamaran with two pontoons, or a trimaran with three. Pontoons may be simply constructed from sealed cylinders such as pipes or barrels, or fabricated as boxes from metal or concrete. Pontoon boat drafts may be as shallow as eight inches, which reduces risk of running aground and underwater damage. The pontoon effect is when a large force applied to the side capsizes a pontoon boat without much warning, particularly a top-heavy boat. Pontoon boats for pleasure boating and fishing can be low cost for their capacity, and cheaper to insure than other boats, even when equipped with substantial engines.
i want to clean algi from pontoons on my pontoon boat,,can muratic acid be used??????
Copper sulfate will interact with and corrode aluminum. If this aluminum is a pontoon on a boat, the corrosion will puncture holes in the pontoons, so make sure that everyone onboard has a life preserver.
There are two theories regarding the origin of "Pontoon Beach." The first theory is that the residents built a bridge that was supported by pontoon boats across Long Lake. The second theory is that, due to steep banks, the residents created docks that were floated on pontoon boats. This created a "beach" of pontoons.
Wet down the lawn and smear butter on the pontoons; then hitch your young-uns to the front and tell 'em first one to the river gets ice cream
