If you’re looking for a pontoon that combines thrilling performance with incredible comfort, the Balise Halo 26L is designed to do just that. It’s a high-end, luxury pontoon that you can rig to your liking. Start by choosing your preferred power, from a single 350 hp Mercury outboard all the way up to twin Mercs that unleash 1,000 total horsepower. With that kind of power, this Balise becomes a performance boat that can hang with anybody on the lake. No matter which you pick, you’ll feel confident at the helm. Twin-outboard models make docking effortless with a Joystick Piloting System, while single-engine setups feature handy bow and stern thrusters to help you look like a pro sliding into that dockside restaurant. The ride itself is exceptionally smooth and quiet, thanks to a special Geometric Reinforced Integrated Design (GRID) chassis that reduces vibration.
The captain’s experience is truly first-class. You and your co-captain each sit at raised helms with a protective walk-through windshield. Everything is controlled from two 12-inch touchscreens that manage GPS, audio, and the boat’s full-spectrum RGB LED lighting. Comfort is key, with heated captain’s chairs, cooled cup holders, and wireless charging stations to keep your devices ready to go. Standard front and rear cameras give you a live feed right on the screens, taking the stress out of maneuvering in tight spots.
When it comes to entertaining, the Halo is packed with features your crew will love. The 4-D Immersive audio system includes three zones on board and even a unique fourth zone under the boat, so you can listen to music while lounging in the bow, midships or the stern, and even while swimming. Finding shade is as easy as pushing a button to operate the power-folding arch, which has an oversized soft top and an extendable Bimini. Thoughtful amenities are everywhere, from a pull-out cooler drawer and a fold-out teak buffet table to a dedicated drawer for your pet’s food and water bowls. An optional gas grill elevates on-water entertaining so you can set up at the sandbar and barbecue, and the incredible industry-first In-Water Power Cooler lowers from the deck to the water, making it easy for everyone to grab a cold drink at the sandbar too.
This 26-foot boat has a roomy 8-foot-6-inch beam, so it’s still trailerable, and it can comfortably host up to 14 people. You can personalize your space with two different layouts: The Cruise layout offers sociable, dual-facing bench seats, while the Lounge layout features a versatile power-folding rear lounger that can be adjusted to multiple positions for passengers to be able to lounge how they choose. It delivers on performance, entertainment and comfort.
