Power boats
Power boats consist of more than 50 categories and within
each category there are several different models and designs. Some of the more common boats you see on the lakes in the summer
are such craft as aluminum boats, bow-rider boats, cruiser
boats, ski boats, fishing boats, high-performance, and of
course, an all-time favorite, the houseboat.

Boating can be taken to almost
any extreme (depending on your needs and most of all your budget) from the very small inflatable craft to the super
yacht. If you are a weekend fisherman, you will most likely have
a 12 to 20-foot long aluminum boat with a 10 to 50-horsepower
motor along with a trolling motor. This very popular boat is an
excellent size for most lakes and will serve you well for lake
fishing.
Inflatable boats are extremely versatile and fun boats to
have, because it can be used as a life raft for a larger boat and you
can usually add a small motor for power. How about a pontoon
boat which has a hull constructed of round tubes, they are attached to the
outside bottom edge of a large flat deck. Don't forget the aft-cabin
boat, which is a fast-cruising boat with a lot of usable living
space and makes for great family outings. Jet boats use a
conventional hull and are usually powered by inboard engines. They
have a water pump that works like a jet drive on a personal
watercraft, which make it go fast and furious.
