Due to the compact and lightweight design of Jon Boats, they require less horsepower compared to other types of boats.
Typically, Jon Boats measuring 10-12 feet in length require a motor with 3-5 horsepower. Slightly larger Jon Boats measuring 14-16 feet usually require motors with 15-20 horsepower to propel the boat.
Furthermore, larger Jon Boats, such as those over 18 feet, generally require a minimum of 25 horsepower motors.
Although the ThrustTrek model is only a 12-foot Jon Boat, it supports both paddling and the installation of a 10-horsepower motor. This means users can reach their destinations faster.
Considering only the boat’s material, Jon Boats are generally suitable for use in saltwater. Most Jon Boats are made of marine-grade aluminum, which has good corrosion resistance.
However, due to the flat-bottomed design of Jon Boats, they may not be suitable for navigating in rough and choppy saltwater areas.
Jon Boats are highly unstable when faced with waves and pose significant risks.
If you insist on taking your Jon Boat to saltwater areas, be sure to use it in designated safe water zones for boating as specified by local laws and regulations.
For a 12-foot Jon Boat like the ThrustTrek model, paddling is a great and cost-effective way to power it while also providing enjoyment.
Based on our own rowing experience, there are a few key points to consider for efficient paddling of a Jon Boat.
Firstly, it’s important to sit as close to the center of the boat as possible to evenly distribute your body weight. This ensures stability and maximizes paddling efficiency. Next, pay attention to your paddling technique.
Grip the paddle with both hands, maintaining a distance equal to your shoulder width. One hand holds the paddle handle, while the other hand grasps the paddle shaft closer to the center, allowing for leverage and control.
Additionally, the choice of paddling technique, whether forward or reverse, affects the boat’s forward movement or deceleration.
Lastly, using corrective strokes will make steering the boat more responsive. When turning left, paddle on the right side, and vice versa.
Of course, if you find learning to paddle a demanding and strenuous task, you can opt for a Jon Boat with a motor. The 12FT Jon Boat ThrustTrek model supports motor installation, alleviating the effort required for propulsion
Regularly cleaning your aluminum Jon Boat will help prolong its lifespan. While navigating in bodies of water such as ponds or lakes, the boat is bound to accumulate microorganisms or various loose debris.
Neglecting these issues over time can lead to damage.
When cleaning the boat, it’s advisable to first remove any equipment, fishing gear, life jackets, or any other items that may hinder the cleaning process.
Next, thoroughly scrub the boat from top to bottom using a cleaning solution and sponge.
Subsequently, rinse the boat thoroughly with fresh water to ensure the cleaning solution is completely washed off.
Finally, dry the boat with a clean towel or allow it to air dry. Additionally, if available, you can use an Aluminum Brightener on your boat to enhance its corrosion resistance.
