i just acquired a 10' alum. jon boat for about $100 for my 1ac pond. it is light enough for me to put in back of p/u, no trailer needed, has solid stern for mounting gas or electric, but i'm just using oars w/ oarlocks. its about 40 yrs old, seeps through rivets, but (empty) beer can easily keeps up w/ leak....o.k. by me for $100.
you get what you pay for. you'll just have to decide how fancy, how long, motor/no motor.....maybe you should get two boats, one like mine, another to suit larger water and more people. mine takes two adults, and you have to be careful in it unless you like swimming. itdoes its job though....deployed an aerator system just fine w/ it.
for what my two cents are worth lee....
