...would you choose a 2 man pontoon or a 14 foot aluminum flat bottom Jon boat.
Jon boat upsides:
More room for gear, movement, etc.
Easy to mount a small trolling motor
Pontoon upsides:
Fits inside an SUV.
I know Jon boats can be had fairly inexpensively, as can used 'toons.
What you guys think? Could a 14-16 ft flat bottom be strapped fairly easily to the top of an SUV, or would a trailer be required?
**At this point it's hypothetical... not gonna be able to buy for at least a few months...but very soon I'll be in the market. Thanks guys.
