Nest came the rub down with tack cloths and a good shop vacuum to remove all traces of paint dust. Once all the dust is removed you may apply a good coat of primer. Make sure it is as even a coat as you can make it. If you are using spray cans, buy a spray can handle. Your fingers will not be able to depress the button long enough and as your hands tire, the paint layers get thinner and more uneven. Apply a good coat over the entire boat inside and out. The primer will expose and surface damages to the metal below as well as any holes in the metal shell which need to be patched. Runs in the paint or primer will be easy to see and although it will not effect the boats use, the final appearance will be effected. Now is the time to sand these defects out and re-prime those areas.

I first stripped all remnants of the old ropes tied to the boat and the wood seats. The wood seats were badly aged and had cracked beyond repair. Starting with a painters knife I scraped every inch of the boat and removed the exposed caulking at all the seams. Very time consuming but if I wanted the new paint to stick it needed to be done. Once this process was finished I scrubbed the boat to remove any left over oils and other things that might foul the paint as well. Next I used a Wagner power stripper and ran that over the entire outside of the boat. I also had to use hand sanding in many of the tight places where the sander head would not fit. The power stripper removed all the dead paint and did a pretty nice job of providing a smooth finish.

Once you feel confident your jon boat is cleaned up nicely, you then want to take the time to slowly and meticulously inspect your jon boat physical characteristics. What you want to look for is any damage to the boat, including cracks, dents, scratches, peeling, or anything else. This is important because this may lead to corrosion or rust which means you want to nip that problem in the bud now before you put your jon boat in storage. more

Depending on where you live, you may want to store your jon boat indoors or outdoors. If you have the option, it’s always better, in my opinion, to store it indoors because you have virtually complete control of what happens to your jon boat when storing it. It also makes sure no critters or weather conditions have their way with your jon boat, which means it’ll be safer from any damage. more

Rod clips (such as those from Mayitr) are both simple and versatile. They can be mounted in pairs anywhere you have space including bulkheads, under gunwales or along bench seats and require nothing more than a pair of stainless screws to do so. When it comes time to insert a rod just clip it in place. Access is as simple as gently pulling the rod free. more

Yes, you can use a bucket effectively for smaller, light weight rods. However, it is doubtful that this method will work for larger rods as the weight and length will cause the bucket to tip. To reduce the possibility that your gear will tangle or be damaged as the boat moves about it is recommended you add an organizer to the bucket. Organizers , such as those available from Charter Marine, not only secure your rods they also allow you to carry & secure a wide range of tackle and tools as well.

A larger wall rack, with the ability to hold between 3 & 6 rods depending on size, is an easier and more economical option for those wishing to store all their rods in a single location. This design generally includes a hard-plastic frame with a flexible foam or rubber insert into which slots or grooves are cut. Much like the individual clip, these grooves allow rods to be inserted for secure storage and the foam/rubber protects the finish. Additional advantages include the ability to mount either horizontal or vertical, allowing you to take advantage of the best possible positioning for your situation and boat design. The vertical mounting option is especially attractive for those who have a center console, the sides of which are otherwise wasted space. here

The first step in properly storing your jon boat is to make sure it’s been cleaned as best as it can be. You want to make sure that there’s no weird growth occurring on the hull, so you want to clean that part of your jon boat rather well. On top of that, if you’re a fisherman and have fish bouncing around inside your jon boat, you’ll definitely want to scrub the interior.
