[QUOTE="ober51, post: 88602, member: 1354"] I'm pressed for time right now but I thought I'd weigh in - from what you describe, plus your enthusiasm, I'd go with the jon boat. It seems to suit your needs a bit better. But just be aware that it's not as good in any chop, even caused by wind/chop. So you don't have to be on Lake Superior to feel the effects of wind. Trailer always makes things easier - especially by yourself. And especially if you are going to mod it and add weight. Even with two guys, moving a modded boat can't be much fun. Read everything you can here, you'll learn A LOT. Good luck and keep the updates coming! [/QUOTE]
