Jon Boat conversion

G`day folks,

dunno if this is the right category but as a boat is somehow a fishing tool i`ll give it a try.

Just finished my jon boat conversion and want to share some pictures. Please see here: http://www.blog.tarakito.net/?p=73#more-73

Cheers & Beers,

Ian.

Nice!! Hope you get many, many years out of it.

Re: Jon Boat conversion

Both of you guys have done very professional jobs on your boats. Have you considered turning it into a business?

Re: Jon Boat conversion

Ian,

Nice work!!! Would you be willing to share more details about the boat (size, how much everything cost to do, etc.)?

Re: Jon Boat conversion

looks realy realy nice, if you fish the river alot(like me) then that would be too much carpeting for the amount of sand and mud. but nonetheless very very nice. thanxs for sharing.
