COEUR d'ALENE - The newest line of boats to be sold on Lake Coeur d'Alene will be Harris FloteBote pontoons, Hagadone Marine Group has announced.

"You see more and more pontoon boats on the water," said Craig Brosenne, GM of Hagadone Marine Group. "They are a versatile craft."

Owners use the dual-hull boats for taking the kids tubing, relaxing on the water, or fishing, Brosenne said. Powered by outboard engines, pontoons are a budget-oriented choice.

Founded in 1957, Harris FloteBote is one of America's first pontoon boat builders. The boats are built with distinctive styling, innovation, and owner comfort in mind.

"Every Harris Flotebote pontoon is a reflection of our commitment to quality craftsmanship and luxurious recreation on the water," said Brad Anderson, president of Harris FloteBote. "We're pleased to add Hagadone Marine Group as one of our premier dealers because of their stellar sales and customer service record."

With complete boating services on Lake Coeur d'Alene, Hagadone Marine Group offers wooden boat building and restoration, new and used boat sales, boat maintenance and service, moorage at three marinas, lake cruises, fuel, supplies, rentals and other marine support.

Hagadone Marine Center on Blackwell Island has eight premium boat lines and previously owned boats for sale in one location. There is moorage for 1,000 boats at Boardwalk Marina, Blackwell Island Marina and Silver Beach Marina, along with marine supplies and a rental fleet of Cobalt boats. Lake Coeur d'Alene Cruises offers daily scenic trips and private event charters.

Six years in a row, Hagadone Marine Group has been named one of America's top 100 dealers by Boating Industry, based on "dependable dealers that exceed sales and service expectations."

Harris FloteBote models are now available for demo at Hagadone Marine Center on Blackwell Island.

"We chose this line because they make great boats, period," Brosenne said. "I predict these will be hot sellers on Lake Coeur d'Alene."
