Wanted a bass boat but my budget was tight, so I bought a Jon Boat and plan to make it into a bass boat. I want a total rebuild and I have a rough make-up of my plan but I was looking for suggestions. The build time is coming up and I am very eager to begin and get back out on the water. I would like a casting deck with swivel seats and more storage space. I don't want to drill into the boat frame itself so everything should be supported by its own weight or with other means. Here is my boat and here is the plan. Would anyone consider metal frames instead of wood frames? and how little of framing is necessary (gotta keep the weight and cost down)?
