[QUOTE="drxfish, post: 500956, member: 25361"] I had a 1236 jon for 22 years. I am not a big guy (5'8" and 170-180) and I had guys up to maybe 225 on the boat with me. I had a 9.9 2 stroke Merc and battery and always too much gear. You have to be very careful and the guy on front cannot stand without risk of falling. as far as flipping, the motor and battery weight kept that from happening. Not an ideal set up for comfort or ease, but you can force anything if you are stubborn and careful. It was perfect for me solo though to get into many places. [/QUOTE]
