Charles,

I just did a search for "Jon Boat" on Ebay, and came up with a bunch of
hits! If your looking for affordable, that might be the way to go. For
what you will pay for a new one, you might be able to get your ideal rig
there. I just seen a 12 Foot Lowe with a 9.9 Merc go for $900.00 on there,
and they seemed to be in good shape, early 90's or so. Just a thought
though, you might want to explore....

Looking for a 12 to 14 foot jonboat... any brands that I should avoid?
Will be powered first with a trolling motor, eventually to be replaced
with a gas.

Won't be used in any big lakes, except maybe the coves at Percy Priest,
which I know I can navigate fairly well in a smaller boat. Otherwise, to
be used in the smaller lakes around here where the bigger fish hang out
(read: Stocked). LOL
