[QUOTE="bluegillfisher, post: 25160, member: 249"] Hello, I bought an old jon boat last spring. I fished from it last summer as it came. It is a Lowe Big Jon--1448. This year I am going to be finishing it like I want it. Of course, this is on a budget and using a lot of recycled materials. The first thing on my list is build a rear deck so I can lock the battery and gas can and not take it out every time I bring the boat home. I have a plywood sign that is 5' x 8'. I will get both front and rear decks from it. Also, I am re-doing the bunks on the trailer real soon as I can see the rot in the ones on the trailer. I will post pictures of progress. But since the main drive is be on the water fishing--I will be slow in completing. I have gotten many ideas from all of the boats on here. You guys do great work. Thanks, Mary Picture of boat as she sits is Attached. [/QUOTE]
