Jon Boat Buying Guide

If you're looking for a simple and affordable way to enjoy your time on the water, a jon boat may be the perfect choice for you. These versatile boats are great for fishing, hunting, and exploring shallow waters. However, with so many options available, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one. To help you make an informed decision, we've put together a list of tips for buying a jon boat, so read on to learn more!
 

Consider the Size

The size of your jon boat will depend on how many people you plan to accommodate and what activities you'll be doing. If you're planning to fish alone or with a friend, a smaller boat may be sufficient. However, if you want to bring your family or friends along, a larger model will be necessary.
 

Determine the Construction Material

Jon boats come in different materials such as aluminum, wood, and fiberglass. Aluminum boats are the most popular due to their durability, low maintenance, and affordability. Wood boats are more traditional and have a classic look but require more maintenance. Fiberglass boats are the most expensive but offer a smoother ride and more features.
 

Look for a Sturdy Transom

The transom is the area of the boat where the motor is mounted. A sturdy transom is essential for keeping the motor in place and preventing water from entering the boat. Make sure the transom is made of a solid material and is reinforced with braces and supports.
 

Check the Hull Shape

The shape of the hull can affect the boat's stability, speed, and maneuverability. A flat-bottomed hull provides better stability in calm waters and is ideal for fishing and hunting. A V-shaped hull is better for rougher waters and can provide a smoother ride.
 

Consider the Accessories

Accessories can make your jon boat more comfortable and functional. Some popular accessories include seats, storage compartments, trolling motors, and depth finders. Make a list of the accessories you'll need based on the activities you'll be doing.

With some research, you can find a jon boat that will provide you with years of enjoyment on the water. To see these vessels for yourself, stop by our dealership in Perry, GA. The Sports Center proudly serves all those in Macon and Columbus.
