A Modern 24-Foot Pontoon Built for True Performance and Comfort

The 2023 Xcursion PFX 243 perfectly blends functionality and luxury in a way that feels entirely at home on Lake Norman. This isn’t just a pontoon built for casual cruising; it’s a platform for connection, adventure, and memory-making on the water. From its sleek lines to its thoughtful layout, the PFX 243 is designed to accommodate families and groups who expect more from their weekends. Measuring 24 feet in length with a generous 102-inch beam, it’s evenly proportioned to deliver rock-solid stability, responsive performance, and plenty of open space for up to eleven passengers. Whether you’re heading out for a morning wakeboard session, an afternoon swim, or an evening ride under the setting sun, this boat makes every moment on the lake effortless.

Performance Driven by Honda Power

At the heart of the PFX 243 is Honda’s BF 200 DXRA outboard engine, delivering 200 horsepower of reliable, smooth, and efficient performance. Known for their quiet operation and rock-solid reliability, Honda’s marine engines have earned the loyalty of boat owners for decades. On the PFX 243, the BF 200 strikes the ideal balance between muscle and refinement. It jumps onto plane quickly, provides strong mid-range acceleration, and maintains quiet cruising speeds that let you enjoy conversations or music without raising your voice. The fuel-efficient four-stroke design also means your time is spent enjoying the lake, not refueling at the dock.

Design and Layout for Everyday Versatility

Step aboard, and the spacious deck immediately stands out. The layout prioritizes relaxation and social connection, with wrap-around seating that invites everyone to settle in. High-quality upholstery maintains both comfort and durability, easy to clean and resilient against long days in the sun. Each area of the pontoon is designed to give passengers plenty of personal space, with ample under-seat storage to keep gear organized. Whether you’re prepping for a day of wakeboarding or setting up a picnic onboard, this layout accommodates every kind of lake day with ease.

Captaining with Confidence

The helm station offers everything a captain could want for full control and comfort. Well-positioned gauges, a clear digital display, and a modern steering wheel make operating the boat intuitive and enjoyable. With the Honda’s throttle response paired to the boat’s balanced design, handling is crisp and predictable. You can cruise through Marina shores, explore quiet coves around Lake Norman, or tow riders behind without ever feeling underpowered. It’s a driving experience that builds confidence whether you’re new to boating or have years at the helm.

Craftsmanship That Defines Xcursion Quality

From the first impression, the Xcursion PFX 243 reflects the manufacturer’s commitment to refined craftsmanship. Every rail, every fastener, and every seam shows attention to detail. The fencing is sleek and solid, giving the pontoon a refined yet strong aesthetic. The deck offers premium flooring that feels soft underfoot and holds up against constant use. Materials are carefully selected to resist fading, water intrusion, and wear, giving the boat the ability to look fresh season after season—even after long days anchored at your favorite Lake Norman sandbar.

Perfect for Lake Norman’s Lifestyle

Being located right here in Cornelius, North Carolina, this Xcursion PFX 243 fits beautifully into the Lake Norman lifestyle. Whether you’re docking at one of the local waterfront restaurants or rafting up with friends for an afternoon swim, this boat provides the ideal mix of social space and smooth performance. The wide beam helps absorb wake chop from other boats, and the durable construction gives confidence even when the lake gets busier during weekends. SouthTown Watersports – Lake Norman, located at 18919 W Catawba Ave Suite B, knows these waters well, and this model suits the area’s boating culture perfectly.

Seating, Storage, and Comfort

The PFX 243 comfortably accommodates up to eleven people, creating a shared on-water experience for everyone on board. Each passenger can stretch out on plush seating, and the thoughtful ergonomics mean that no seat feels secondary. Hidden beneath each bench, you’ll find deep storage for life jackets, ropes, and all-day essentials. The wide deck layout encourages passengers to move around freely, while keeping the boat balanced and comfortable in motion. Even when fully loaded, the PFX 243 maintains smooth tracking thanks to the precision-engineered pontoon design.

Performance Meets Relaxation

Boat owners often have to choose between a high-performance engine setup and true cruising comfort—but the Xcursion PFX 243 provides both. The 200 HP Honda outboard easily handles towing duties for wakeboarding, tubing, and light watersports, while still maintaining an impressively quiet idle for sunrise or sunset cruises. The transition from active fun to relaxed floating feels seamless. On Lake Norman, that means you can spend your morning carving behind the boat and your afternoon drifting near Jetton Park or the islands north of the 150 bridge—all without compromise.

Technology and Features

Every standard component contributes to convenience and safety. The helm includes easy-to-read gauges, switches for lighting and accessories, and premium seating for the operator. Smooth throttle response, intuitive controls, and a balanced steering system make maneuvering around docks or launching ramps simple. The electrical system is neatly organized and built for dependability, while lighting features enhance visibility for early departures or late returns. Optional stereo and lighting upgrades are available through SouthTown Watersports for owners who want a fully customized experience tailored to Lake Norman’s vibrant social boating scene.

Durability for Years of Enjoyment

Beneath its good looks, the PFX 243 uses robust construction and quality materials to ensure lasting performance. Xcursion pontoons use reinforced cross-members, heavy-duty welds, and thick-gauge aluminum tubes built to handle real-world boating conditions. This focus on strength gives the boat a solid, stable feel underfoot, even with a full crew aboard. The flooring choices remain cool under bare feet and stand up to heavy use, making cleaning and maintenance simple. Every choice reflects Xcursion’s goal of building pontoons that perform beautifully and endure season after season.
