    ^x2. Great little Jon Boat.
    Cody: It's a pretty cool sidearm you got there. What is it?
    Four Leaf Tayback: I don't know what it's called. I just know the sound it makes when it takes a man's life.

    Frank, I never thought I'd say this again. I'm getting the pig!
    Frank, we gotta get rid of this broad. I know a great place up the road. Lots of alligators.

    Marvin: If there's one thing I know, it's women and covert operations.
    Frank: Marvin, that's two things.
    Han Cho Bai: No, grasshopper. It is not.

    I helped my father build a Bevin's Skiff a few years ago. Easily done, fairly cheap, easy to maintain, stable, light enough for me to cartop solo.

    I don't know what it is perfect for...other than it is light and small... that little boat is very tippy... two of us in a remote lake... upside down before you could blink... lucky the lake was warm. It took us maybe 45 minutes to get us and the boat to a shore, then we flipped it back and got the water out... carefully rowed back to the truck.

    Never used it again, sold it...

    Zuki have a look at the 12' foot marlon. My bud bought one and it's extremely wide and stable not to mention it doesn't weight bugger all compared to the lowes.

    Really depends on what and how you are using it.
    Son just picked up a new Lowe 1040 from Domenics for fly fishing in small Princeton area lakes.
    So far he loves it.

    I called them today.
    The 10-40 is priced near $1150.00
    Then the taxes add a bunch to this.
    Going to snoop the Kijiji and such to try and curtail this amount
    by a bunch.

    I found a few lakes up here not needing a 14' trailered boat and the
    wee 8' I borrowed is a tad small for my liking.

    Thanks for the replies.

    Could always build your own for half that cost or less.
    I'm not a carpenter by any means but I built a little punt for small lakes,
    and am now building a bigger one. I'm installing a yolk so I should be able
    to carry it like a canoe. It is a flat bottomed 10 1/2 ft long by 34" wide boat
    that will easily carry 2 people and a large dog.
