Title: Boat Question
Post by: silverdalesauer on April 05, 2018, 12:53:26 PM

Just curious what people think about Marlon Jon Boats vs other types? Does anyone here have experience with them?

I'm looking for a decent jon boat for freshwater fishing that will allow me to get my whole family in the boat without having to spend thousands of dollars. I've searched around and keep seeing that the Marlon boats offer more capacity for less cost. Is that because they're cheaper made or just better built?

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Never been in one but I was shopping the 14' model as a duck boat specifically because they claim higher weight capacity and better stability. I saw nothing that made me think they weren't capable of what they claimed.
