Pontoon Boat Salvage

I need info about using pvc or mdpv or hdpv for pontoons ???

I want to build a small two man pontoon boat, and would like to use inexpensive locally available items for it’s construction…I have seen pontoons of this type, but do not know where to get the end peices, or how to mount my frame structure on them…Any ideas, or wholesale/salvage places that can accommodate me would be appreciated.. Thanks !!!

First of all PVC pipe is not cheap, also did you mean hdpe type pipe. Do you want to make a paddle boat type 2 man pontoon or one with a motor? if you want to make a paddle type mounting is pretty easy because you can use different connectors start Small with a pro to type . I made one out off 2 ten foot pieces of PVC that was 6 inches water mains,on the ends I just used end caps they have them that are curved on the ends that made the pontoons for the seats I used 2 old plastic stacking chairs that I mounted on 2, 5 foot pieces of 4 in pipe in the middle I used 2 in pipe to make a square that was 4×4 that was drilled into the top of the 4 in. pipes the 4 in pipe was drilled into the 6 in. pipe to make cross pieces then I chalked the holes I have yet to take it out in deeper than about 4 feet of water but it will hold me and my brother both of as are almost 430 lbs. and it stayed a float sinking less than half of the pipes so I’m sure it will work the trick is to make it big to disperse your weight evenly. I hope this was helpful if not at least interesting. Good luck with your build my friend, B.
