if anyone is wanting to get a jon boat, but doesn't want to spend too much, this is REALLY worth checking out.

i want to make one of these just for the heck of it!

it would be a nice boat to take out by yourself because it probably only weighs 30 pounds, and it would be easy to handle.

I'm sorry, but I couldn't help laughing at this.

I really like how it's car-top-able. Only problem is seeing where you're going to get to the pond.

Sure looks like one small stick could make you have a bad day.  May have to double bag it : )   I guess it would be pretty cheap to replace your entire hull though.

I do have to applaud the creativity of these people, but I don't think I'd go out in that thing.  I'd bet you get some interesting looks at the local boat ramp.  

If that was the best I could do, I wouldn't even bother. Thats a joke.

Hell why not cut some 55 gallon drums in half and screw them together round side down, long ways, and call that a boat.
