Abstract: A fishing boat has two pontoons connected by a panel. The boat is made of expanded copolymer, preferably a mixture of polystyrene and polyethylene. The bottom of the panel is above the water line when the boat is carrying a normal load. A motor mount is clamped to the stern of the boat by bolting a metal plate above and below a pad at the rear of the panel. A tie rod connects the front of the pontoons. Bores or buckets in the top of the pontoons are closed by a plastic cover over a plastic rim adhered into the top of the bores or buckets.
