While waiting for my offshore boat to get out of the shop for its transom repairs I started a Jon boat boat restoration project. This is a 1985 tracker grizzly 14ft. I bought it off facebook marketplace and made it go from old to new.

I will be using my new aluminum boat for duck hunting, frog gigging, gator hunting, flats fishing, back country fishing, pond fishing and whatever adventure I may find myself it. This is the perfect boat for some good times and it's cheap so you can still get out on the water with little cost

I really enjoy the DIY marine EVA foam floors. It's basically do it yourself seadek for an aluminum boat. I got the EVA marine foam from amazon and they make the Jon Boat feel great!
