Do we take bets of how long before the canoe turns over with you in it???????? :)

I'm gonna work on it this week.

Will post pix when finished.     I would never do this if I didn't have the spring creek stabilizers.

Each one extends out from the side for 2 feet.  So that's 4 feet of stabilizers plus 3 feet of flat bottom canoe for a total of 7 feet of width on a 14' canoe.  How many  aluminum boats  have anything approaching that?

well,...the jons don't NEED that, they are equally as stable out of the box.

This works so well for you because of the launching ability of a canoe, right?  I mean, if you were to trailer it in to wherever you fish, all this would not be necessary, you could just use a jon.  You can stand up and walk around in a jon too.

Have you ever considered a jon?  If I remember correctly, there was a very good reason you use the canoe,...but it escapes me at the moment.

Have you ever considered a jon

I consider it every morning after my first cup of coffee  ;D :) ;D
