The pontoon paddles around a bit easier in calm conditions. I would rather have a Fat Cat or traditional tube in moderate to heavy winds. Sitting as high as you do in the pontoon, it tends to turn into a sail boat. Oars are a nice addition when legs get tired. I throw flies every so often so the height is a nice advantage.
I got my toon on a killer deal from a friend so I can't complain too much. It is really nice to mount things on as well. If I was buying a new outfit, I would lean toward the kickboats (e.g., Fat Cat). They have a ton of the advantages of the pontoons and traditional tubes combined.
Catch of few of the California fishies for me!
