Potoon Boat vs Breathless Boat??

[ecugrad2003]

We are going on our honeymoon and I've seen pictures of the Breathless..boat...very nice and romantic.
I was wondering opinions on the Pooton boat? Can you get up and walk around on it? I know you can bring food/drink unlike Breathless..but how is it for viewing..w/ the Tarp on it??

Thanx...DIS

The pontoon boat is a 24-foot Party Boat, easily seats 10 ppl plus the driver. Yes, you can get up and walk around, and the tarp is not a factor with the viewing. Usually the tarp is closed and when it is open it only covers the back 1/4 of the boat (above the driver.

We have been out on both the Breathless and the Pontoon boats. Both will give you a great view of Illuminations. You can sit in the middle or back seat of the Breathless but there is definitely no walking around room. The pontoon boat has lots more room and is great to share with others to decrease the cost of the cruise, but since this is your honeymoon, maybe you'd prefer just the two of you?! There are only 5 boats total for rent for each night's Illumination show (4 pontoon boats as well as the Breathless) ; no matter which you choose, make sure you call on your 90 day mark and have several days picked out in case you are shut out your first try. We really enjoyed the vantage point of watching the show from the water line......hope you have a wonderful honeymoon trip!
