The focus is on fun.

Pontoon boats continue to amaze with their comfort and easy handling, as evidenced by Barletta’s delightful Corsa 25UCA.
Starting in the roomy bow, the Corsa offers a pair of plush lounge seats that are the ideal spot to stretch out in comfort or gather with a half-dozen or more friends and still have room to spread out. There’s a mountain of storage space for gear under the seat cushions, so there’s no need to leave anything behind.
Amidships the Corsa offers high-back reclining captain’s chairs for the pilot and co-pilot, each with fold-down armrests for added comfort. At rest, the seats can be turned to face the three-wide Ultra-Lounge at the stern, creating a second private space for quiet conversations. Overhead, a standard Bimini top provides protection from the midday sun.
That stern Ultra-Lounge seat deserves special mention for its versatility. Set it for comfy three-wide forward-facing seating, or flip it to create aft-facing seating that’s open to the stern, providing a great space from which to keep tabs on swimmers or get geared up for a ride on a tube. The Ultra-Lounge will also lay fully flat to create an expansive stern sunpad.
Want to put your feet up? That versatile Ultra-Lounge converts into a triple-wide lounge facing forward or aft, for more seating options. You can even set it as three-wide back-to-back seating facing forward and aft at the same time. It’s truly an ingenious bit of engineering and adds to this boat’s appeal. It still leaves plenty of pass-through space between the twin swim decks at the stern, which are served by a stainless steel retractable boarding ladder. Throughout, Barletta’s top-notch fit and finish is evident.
“The new Barletta Corsa models offer sturdy construction and the ultimate performance,” says Betsey Arvai at SkipperBud’s. “They’re built with the best materials and bring fun and function to the forefront.”
