Some people call these hydrilla gorillas, or just bass jon boats. Whatever you call them, their cool as hell.. What you do is take a jon boat (usually a 14 ft) and add a plywood deck and give it many of the amenities of a full size bass boat. I'm looking for my own 14-16 ft jon boat right now to build one myself.

As you can see on the hydrilla gorilla to the right, there has been a deck installed and pedistal seats added so you no longer have to sit on the metal spreaders. there is also a gas motor and rod and reel storage.

I really like this conversion when it is done to old v-hulls.

I also have a crappy 10 ft john boat for sale if anyone wants it send me an email. It's ugly and has front end damage. It makes a nice yard ornament next to my bass buster.
