Hi from sw missouri. Just acquired an older 10 ft aluminum jon boat from a local farmer ($100). I plan to use it on ponds and small lakes with my fishing buddy. I used an 8 ft bass raider but too hard to push around with TM and needed a little more room.
BUT, since the boat is older it only has wooden boards for seating and no floatation at all.
So where/how could I mount floatation material?....It looks like the only places are under the seats, but how to mount it?, and a little area in the bow.
What should I use?
Any guesses how much to use since my space is limited?...yes I read the link on foam but seemed like overkill.
Thanks in advance...great site...glad to find it as I start to use this "new" boat.
