Has anyone put or built a tower in a jon boat? Ive seen one pic of one on google images and i think it looks pretty cool, anyone got any input/ideas/opinions?
haha, no i dont plan on putting a jack plate on it (im assuming thats what hes got on that boat..) if i put anything on the transom itll be a cmc tilt/trim bracket. I like the tower idea because i fish mostly fresh water but i do occasionally fish the flats and it would be nice to have then. Plus i think it would just make my boat stand out because how many people put towers on jon boats ?

Yep, I've seen two similar ones at the boat ramp here in Hudson. One was decked in and one
open like the one shown. I have a 20' Lowe with a full decked/full console that is nearly as high
and visibility is very good. While a bit tippy at 52" bottom and 72" at top, you can slow that down by spreading out the weight and keeping the heavy stuff low. Batteries up front, and fuel tank in the center (under the leaning post).
Here is a pic of my build and you are welcome to come over and take a look, we are neighbors.
