[QUOTE="BassBlaster, post: 211777, member: 2865"] I'll agree. If I was gonna have a 10 footer, Id get a little bass pontoon over a jon. Just my personnal opinion. I used to own a Pelican 10E plastic bass boat and it was surprisingly stable. It can be moved around by yourself and 2 guys can carry them anywhere. I have fished from a 1032 jon boat and I think I would have prefered to have been on a conoe. I couldnt wait to get off that thing and I never fished from it again. Waaaaaaaaay too tippy. Watch Craigslist and you can pick up those little bass boats cheap. When I had mine, it had only been on the water a couple times. The trolling motor was still in the box. I paid $500 for it. Added a battery and a $80 fish finder and had a sweet little puddle jumper. They are rated for like a 3 or 4 hp outboard as well. Theres one listed currently on my local CL and it even has a livewell and comes with a trailer so they are definately around if you choose to go that way. [/QUOTE]
