I recently bought some pontoons to build a floating camp on. I was wondering if you guys can give me the weight capacity the pontoons could hold at full submergersion and half?

So is that the total weight that the barge can handle ( taking into acount the weight of the bage itsself)?

Hopefully you guys can answer the same question with this new item we want to purchase...
Dale thanks for the re-working of the problem. I am going to stick 9000 lbs to be on the safe side for building and what not. Norman I am 29 years old haven't been in school in quite a while but if you want to see pics of the pontoons I can post them. Thank you guys for your help and quick...
