Found this boat on Craigslist for 100 dollars. Does it look worth it? It’s 10 feet and would be used for two people. I already have a trolling motor and battery 

 

 

 

Little people I hope. 325 lb capacity isn't much to work with.

$100 is hard to beat if it doesn’t leak. ?

Between two adults, TM and battery - you're already at the weight limit. Whoops, no capacity for tackle, cooler, etc.

 

A 10' jon boat is pretty much a one-person rig...

If it's in decent shape it's a steal. I bought a 9 footer for $150  and named it "Soap Dish". I sold it to a duck hunter for $300 to haul his decoys behind him while he wades out in the water and sets them. He said "Soap Dish" was perfect. I did clean it up a bit and added a new electric motor mount. 

I wouldn't bank on fishing with two people.  They are really unstable at that size.  If you both lean the same way at the same time, it's bath time.  I had a 12' jon boat that I liked to drag to small ponds and such, but it was tough going with two people.

I have a 12 foot Jon boat that I use for duck hunting and floating a small river for brown bass. We do not use a motor and we usually fish with 2 people. We limit our gear as well and it works good. More weight would be unstable. When I go duck hunting and take my clumsy yellow lab with, I really have to be careful.

 

I used to have a 10 footer and it was simply too small for 2 adults plus gear, even without a motor. Which is why I upgraded to a 12 footer.

 

100 bucks is a good deal but don’t plan on having 2 adults, motor, gear, etc otherwise you will be over weight.

There you go.  Get the 10 footer, clean it up, and flip it for something bigger.

Yep i agree, that was the most unstable "boat" I've ever been on.  On it, NEVER STAND UP EVER.  It was a 10- 13 foot lowe, very narrow
