My last jon boat just went to it's new owners yesterday. I am currently without a boat except for my 17 ft. Grummin canoe. Even though there's not a lot of crawdads or alligators in Western Pa. I've been kicking around the idea of building an aluminum skiff.
I was thinking of buying a bare hull and found a couple places that build 16 to 18 foot ones that are 45 inches wide. I need a light weight boat as I fish a lot of area that are 20 HP restricted.
I was thinking 18X45 with a tiller motor and flotation pods, grab bar console, live well, small seat/ battery box in the rear, and a couple pedestal seats.
Anyone have one or ever build one? I'm just in the planning stage, so let hear your thoughts. Thanks Todd
