-
They have squared-off bows rather than coming to a point at the front.
-
Most jon boats are made of aluminum, though there are also a handful of fiberglass and roto-molded polyethylene models on the market.
-
Jon boats are very simple and utilitarian, often with little more than bench seats built-in.
-
Jon boats tend to be small and light.
-
Of all the different types of boats on the market, jon boats are among the least expensive.
