Jon Boat to Bass Boat Build (Cheap DIY)
We stumbled across an old jon boat owned by Cody’s family and came up with a great idea. We decided to turn the old jon boat into a nice bass boat with a casting deck! It was very cheap to do and we hope you guys can learn from our do it yourself project! Thanks for watching and please like and subscribe!

Super..plan to do that to mine. You and I have an orginial "APPLEBY" 10 footers. Made with high grade Reynolds Alumium back as early 1956. Company bought out was LOWES boat manuf. I find it very tispy though. This old fishin lady now has to get it down to lake place from a pond of 30 yrs it sat on...lol. Great job. Thanks for share.
Great video I just got my first jon boat an I needed a video like this

Yea man this is pretty cool, I've been thinking about trying to do this because I've grabbed an old boat just like that out of my grandpa's old junk pile and I'm thinking about wanting to do that, also look like you did a nice job.

Thanks! We say you go for it. You don’t need to spend a lot of money to do a good job. We honestly had a great time doing it and it feels good to turn something that would be junk into something you can use.
Great video guys. I have an old Jon boat like that too. I noticed the floor braces don’t go up the sides like the newer ones do

Thanks appreciate it. Wasn’t hard to do and was very cheap.
Great 👍 job guys.. Being a Pro Photographer I appreciated your time lapse sequence. How about a good sanding job , prime it then apply a coat of camo paint 🎨. Would look 👀 really cool..

We might power wash it and do some more detailing to the boat later. Thanks for the tip 👍🏻😃
Great video! I have the same boat and am considering decking it. Would be great to see a stability demonstration in the water.

What size was boars did you use for bottom of deck
Good stuff cheap...or at least the carpet was! 😜 Just an idea...you should hinge at least one platform (or part of it) for storage. You have a ton of unused space under there 👍

I think we are going to add some extra storage soon. We might give it a nice power wash as well😂
Yeah I’m doing this
The gap on the sides will help you to remove the decks of needed good job boys

Great boat! What is the weight limit? How much do you guys weigh?

Not really sure what the weight limit is. It’s definitely not big enough for 3 people. We got on it comfortably, but any more than that would not be good.
