I have the Copper River Pontoon which then became the TU Madison. It has 7' pontoons and I weigh under 200 so it is OK. For the money it has been adequate. I have never owned another pontoon but my brother has a much more expensive 'toon with 8' pontoons. Other than being built from better materials they are about the same for fishing. Mine weighs 45 lb and my brothers is about the same. We put them on car top carriers and the light weight makes that easy. They travel well on top also, just make sure the seat doesn't pop up while you are driving. I do this by orienting the 'toon so the seat is held down by the wind.
