  • We took a Jon Boat from the 1980s and turned it into a bass catching machine. We put modifications everywhere on this thing. We finally got it in the water and even landed a few fish. I hope you enjoy!

    Should of used aluminum studs to turn it in to a bass boat, eliminate the wood weight, I am in the process of building one.. I tried wood and it took my mph down, with the aluminum it brought my mph back up ...

    Now i want to do this... i have access to a free jon boat. but not wood prices are out of this world! Only difference is i want to maybe do a small outboard on the back and throw a battery storage up front and a trolling motor. Probably have to fill the deck with foam and add another layer of plywood above that.

    How much weight do you think you added in the conversion? Any tips for a similar build?.
    Again thanks for the content during these trying times 👍

    • @B_the_Cameraman
      @B_the_Cameraman  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I would say 500 lbs or close to it. Now in retrospect that may not be that bad but I was legit worried about it. If you get a trailer make sure it is for a job boat. Outside of that it was pretty easy just time consuming

    I feel your pain on the never ending project. I started mine back and January and I still have to finish my front frame build my rear frame and cast deck then fiberglass and paint all the wood. Carpet has to be done then all the rest will come next winter. But I ripped the seats out so I made way more work then I should have. But hopefully once the stay at home order is off in NC the cheap hooker will be done
