    the issue with pontoon boats is the pontoons take up a lot of deck space there great boats however there are some gull wing style boats that have all the room in the world and are almost (very little in it) just as stable as a pontoon for diving etc

    my boat is a fishcity 430 which comes in tiller steer, side console or center console. they also so now make the fishcity 465 which is forward control
    mine is the basic tiller steer model with a 30hp on the back allough a 40hp would be the go imo

    two guys sitting on one side is no issue and it has way more deck space than most 16ft cabin boats
    I took a couple of mates out spearfishing the other day ( I rod fish from it that's all) and it didn't mind them jumping on and off one bit and my mate who dose a lot of diving was impressed with it



    might be worth a test drive

    yeah room is also another thing i was considering, the frewzas look like theyve got more than most.
    i was also looking at those, they look like good little boats.

    they are great little boats mate but as I said above I would suggest a 40 if your doing a lot of diving or have a few people on board
