My 1240 is with 40"bottom is very sturdy in the water..My wife and I can stand up n o problems. If your gonna get a 10 footer...go with the 1040 youl love it! Cabela's may...
I'm gonna be adding a floor to my lowe 1240 jon boat. I would like to know ways to waterproof the plywood before putting carpet on it. Can I roll a few coats of polly on it? Whats does everyone recommend? I would like the floor to be removable...thanks for any help
Just returned from our first trip out in the Lowe 1240...Perfect boat for our spots! Having the 40" bottom makes all the difference in the world. Standing up is no problem at all. Really really stable little boat. The clam shell style seats from Deck Mate are very comfortable and very happy with...

Thanks! I just have to figure out what trailer suits my needs. Either the Loadrite 14F1000WT or the 14F800WT?
The 1000 has torsion axles the 800 has leaf springs. The 1000 has 12" wheels and 800 has 8" wheels...
Actually you said thank you later :LOL2: So I will do just that...I'm sure the 1240 has slightly more stability then the 1236
Bunch of reasons why im picking the 1240...It only weighs 107 pounds so we can sneak it into some ponds that do not have a boat ramp. (Most of our spots have no ramp)...
I finally found a 2017 L1240 in stock at a dealer couple hours away with a 535 max load rating...It will be the perfect pond boat for the wife and I...I have a brand new minkota 55 pound thrust trolling motor for it. I miss the fresh water seen so much. I will post up some pics when I get it...
