If you choose to buy your Sylvan, it's good to know what used pontoon boats for sale might cost. Generally, a used pontoon will run you anywhere from a few thousand to about $6,000. Of course a lot depends on the year of the boat, the size, the motor type and features it has. Wear and tear and damage is also considered.
Some larger, newer pontoons will obviously cost much more, because they have the capacity to hold more people, and include more features. These can go for as much as $20,000, so make sure to set a price range before you go out shopping!
