This is a 1959 Riva Ariston built in Italy.

They had a bunch of pontoon boats. My in-laws had one and it was fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2pw9UxD\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53506130747_47fd3a56b3.jpg\" alt=\"_DSC0067\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>And bass boats. I saw one for $91,000. I bought a used bass boat when I lived near a lake in Texas back in the day. It was used and I think I paid like $400 and sold it back to the guy I bought it from for $400. The two happiest days of my life were the day I bought and the day I sold it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2pwg4Cn\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53507331969_a6ee6a46dc.jpg\" alt=\"_DSC0060\" width=\"500\" height=\"331\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Lots of little light weight travel trailers.

I had to stand in place for a while before traffic cleared out so I could take a photo. A trailer with a back deck and loft sleeping areas.
