That looks like fun.  Did you fish?

Not to my knowledge.  I believe it starts at Portsmouth VA and goes south.  From Portsmouth you would have to go the Atlantic along the coast of Va and Md until you got to Ocean City Md.

At my age, I know I will never have another boat...but if I did, it would be a pontoon, that is for certain!  If I had it to do over again 25 years ago that is what my fishing boat would have been...With a DB on it at the back!

Pontoons are comfortable and fun but they're not a good choice for fishing.  It's difficult to properly hold a position over fish-holding structure.

I will respectfully disagree...and it might be the type of fishing.  My friend has one and we would troll for trout and kokanee, and it worked well in the Delta for Salmon...Now Bass and casting type fishing, maybe not so good!

Yep, that's the difference.  But even when trolling they present a huge frontal area to the wind and are slow to respond to the helm so precise trolling along irregular structure is almost impossible.

We use downriggers!  And we were always on reservoirs or as I said the delta, so it was 2 miles an hour and pretty much straight.  Not much wind most of the time!  And yes, it was all about comfort and stability!

Not sure how old you are however I bought my first jet boat last year at 73.  I was tired of putting around in my pontoon boat so got something with a little speed.  It will hit close to fifty MPH.
