I'm in the market for a Jon Boat, something small, simple, and cheap. Basically just going to be used at my local lake and other surrounding small bodies of water. I'm getting one WITHOUT a gas motor, as it's not needed, nor permitted on most of the local lakes.
My question is, this will be my first boat EVER! lol I'm sure there's alot of stuff like registration, etc. etc. I was just curious if someone could give me a small break down on what I need to do to make everything "legal" and possible some "must have" things as far as the boat goes (this will be a boat + trailer)
I live in PA and mainly looking for 12ft-14ft jon boat, nothing big or fancy. Something I can crash into rocks while chasing bass! lol (j/k)
I found a 14ft Aluma-Craft that comes with a trailor, doesn't sound like it has much else to it (trolling motor etc). Here's a copy of the add, just curious how it sounds:
"ALUMA-CRAFT: 14 FT. SEMI V with TeeNee trailer. Real nice shape. $375."
