[QUOTE="sawmill, post: 298459, member: 9014"] I had a 10 foot Jon boat and a friend of mine and I swamped it on purpose to see if it would float are was stated by the company. Lets put it this way you don't want to have to set in it and you don't want the wind to be blowing. We filled it completly full and to sit in it was like trying to set on a log floating in the water. We both got in to it and you had to sit real still or it would take over. This was back in the day when floation was just started to be added to boats so the newer ones may be different. We had a lot of fun that day. We also did a canoe but that did not turn out so good. It floated until we tried to get in it and it sank but came back to the surface real easy. This was in my young and dumb days :LOL2: [/QUOTE]
