We’ve heard stories of some of our jons being used by the third generation of the original owners. Our all-welded 1650s and larger have three more keel breaks (the longitudinal corrugations formed in the bottom) and up to three more lateral ribs than other manufacturers’ all-welded jons. Not only do we use more ribs, we use heavier, wider, stronger ribs, and heavier gauge aluminum. Rigged with dependable Yamaha outboards these boats are made to perform for decades.
