I saw a guy in a jon boat try to sit on his ice chest in the center of
the boat facing to the side. *When he sat on the ice chest it slide
backwards and the boat just rolled over and pitched him in the water.
He came up and jumped back in so fast it was pretty comical.

I would buy a two or three man molded "pontoon" type boat before I
would ever buy another jon boat. *You can stand on the edge of one of
those things and they won't flip. *They don't leak either. *Put a
trolling motor and battery on them and off you go. *They also fit in
the back of a pickup better IMHO.

Just don't drag them across concrete.

Do you have a link to that kind of boat? I can't find molded pontoon
boat. Thanks.
