A Jon boat journey - Life and times, and mods, of a G3 river Jon.

Sweet update. I'm working on a tracker right now.

My favorites mods are the ladder and the duck blind. Do you weld aluminum?

That hitch mod is probably the best anti theft way to do it. Hard to haul away without a hitch!

Yes sir, I do. First metal I ever learned to weld when I was 18 yoa. I'ma 61 now.

Really good work, I like the ladder you put on the trailer. You extended the tongue out enough where it wont hit the bumper of the truck on a tight turn?

Yes sir, it's plenty long enough. What's nice about it is, if I need a longer one to reach further out into the water (shallower water launch), I can make one as long as I need. So, if ya see a boat with a "20 foot tounge" trailer go-n down the highway, you know who's a pull-n it.

That's awesome! A lot of time and care went into that boat!

You thought about putting a lifeline and safety harness on that ladder? So when you fall you won't hurt yourself[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
