My first mud rig was a 1436 jon from French Settlement, La. that was all beat up and I slapped an 18 HP GD longtail on it. She was slow but able and I shot a lot of ducks out of that rig. Just be sure you balance your load and have all the requisite safety equipment and wear your kill switch lanyard but above all, have a good time!

Oh yeah, I put a 1/8" alum U bracket on the transom to stiffen it up. I suppose I should have welded it but it was enough with that motor. |
