Trident Pontoons

Tavares FL

Most recent update: March 28, 2020.

Trident Pontoons, formally known as Trident Florida Trading, was founded by Robbie Cunningham at the turn of the century. It builds small passenger vessels: visit the company at tridentpontoons.com. The plant, which it shares with a company that makes float planes, is on Lake Idamere, northwest of Orlando. See it from the air on Google here. The table below lists 135 boats but there are many gaps in the hull numbering sequence.
