jon boat
Simple aluminum craft
A jon boat is a small, flat-bottomed boat with squared-off bow and stern, typically made of aluminum.
Jon boats are favored for shallow water—fishing in ponds, navigating swamps, or hunting waterfowl in marshes where deeper-hulled boats would run aground.
Simple and stable, they're workhorses rather than pleasure craft: We took the jon boat out to check the crawfish traps.
