How To: Measure and Cut Jon Boat Casting Deck Hatches
Step by step demonstration video of how I measure and cut the hatches for my rear cadting deck in my jon boat. Im currently in the middle of my rear deck rebuild of my jon boat to bass boat, the #topgunjonboat , and decided I'd make a step by step video of how I address the hatch portion on the process. Very in depth, hopefully it can help as this is a commonly asked question i get. Ill show how I measure, account for carpet, space hatches, plywood orientation, explain the over all process. As well as show the end result. Enjoy
Note: I am using 11/32 plywood but typically recommend 1/2 inch for most builds because it is easier to work with.

Thank You
Thanks a ton for all the hard work on these videos. They’ve been very inspiring and motivating for me. Just started my own build of a 14 foot v hull and will be using some of your techniques and processes. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks so much for watching and taking time to leave some love in the comments! Good luck on your build man👊👊👊
great video, excellent explanation and very detailed, i watched the whole thing and had zero questions left.
Amazing job man. Both the work and explaining it in the video. If someone doesn’t follow how you’re doing things, they probably shouldn’t be building their own boat.
I ever trade in my v-haul boat and get a flat bottom i am bringing it to you to build. That boat is awesome. You do a very thorough job. 👍👍
Thanks man👊 May be in business soon enough!
You're an inspiration and a great source of knowledge. Thanks for what you're doing.
thanks for the support man
Love the detail and insight you put in these videos. Your finished deck hatches look awesome! I used your other videos for my first 12ft jboat - appreciate the content.
Thank you very much. Glad it helped👊
youre the man! Love the details. thanks
👊👊👊 Thanks for the support man
Bro you rock! Keep on keepin' on!
You know the undeniable urge ya get no matter how hard you try to stop from sneezing or tearing up from cutting on an onion or yawning when the person next to you yawns??….🤦🏾♂️well Lord knows I tried to resist the urge but I just gotta do it!! Like a cat pawing a dangling ball of yarn or a bass with a shakyhead SXE Shad roboworm in front of its face….here comes the manchildishness…@ 12:28 ”That’s what she said”…I know-I know….couldn’t resist (but now bruh, c’mon who doesn’t love a decent gap? Wood and gaps go hand in hand…etc.🤷🏾♂️)🙄😏
Great Video Tutorial and Awesome Information as usual….
(…oh, yeh, no…now actually talkin about and complimenting your videos not my comments…lol!)👍🏾😉😜
Dr Jones nice work
👊👊👊 Thank you sir
Awesome!
Nice job
Looking good cuzin!!!
Helpful bro. Thanks
Thank u
Awesome!!!
Hi. I've been building my boat using mostly your videos. They are a huge help. Thanks so much. I have a question... I cut my Center deck board (3/4" ply) and it sits flush to the boat bottom between the two boat benches. My cut is so tight to the benches (with carpet) that I have to press the floor in by standing on it. Will that cause me a problem in the winter when the aluminum contracts? I'm afraid the deck will buckle.
🔥🔥🔥
👊👊👊
Great videos, Thanks for sharing. I'm doing an 18' crestliner fish hawk from top to bottom and front to back. The techniques you use are simple and practical and should last a very long time. It looks like you are using regular plywood and not marine grade, Is this correct? I'm going to use regular 19/32" BCX plywood (this is the size that it has now) on my build with the fiberglass resin and just wanted to get your opinion. Thanks again for all the videos it is very much appreciated!
Have you ever done a "V" bottom. I have a '57 Arkansas traveler that I want to remodel like you have done.
U rock boss
U the man cuz👊
If anyone is going to use 24oz carpet the gap you want is 5/16’s (slightly more than a quarter inch).
👊👊👊
Secret on squaring a 1/4”. Framing squares are exactly 1/4”. Makes a lot easier than using a tape for hinges
I think I was just using the tape for a visual reference to show viewer the measurement but great knowledge nonetheless
Anthony Jones love your build, I can’t wait to see the longevity of your battery and outboard.
Thanks do much manand for the tip. Outboard is doing great, battery is rated for 3,000 charge cycles, hopefully all goes well!
Great Videos !
Do you have a Video on how you plumbed or did your Livewell Pump or Whole System ? I am trying to figure out a design for a Livewell in my boat with the Pump going to my drain plug hole . (Recirculating is What I am going for !) I have a 2022 Alumacraft Alweld 1232 , I'm building a deck,floor. Etc.
Yes, I have a two part livewell build series on this boat. Some of my first videos I made here on the channel
Awesome video. Question, would you put the sides down before the floor just in case the floor has to be replaced?
No. My sides come out easy so floor can be pulled if necessary. If I'm understanding your question correctly without having to go back and watch my video
When cutting carpet for inside corners (i.e., the deck framing around hatches), do you do anything special for the inner edge of the corners themselves? Or, do you just count on the "fluff" of the carpet to fill the gap? I have seen your technique for outside corners, and how you finish them on the underside, but I don't think I've seen anything anywhere on how to best handle inside corners.
There's not much you can do besides make a perfect cut to the corner and fold under so the material is equal on both sides. Unlike a hatch corner, you have less material there. Ive touch up oainted the exposed wood insude corner with gray to help hide it. For this same scenario is all aluminum boat carpet jobs, i can a small swatch and contact cement it in place. On wooden parts, i typically leave it alone.
@@AnthonyJonesBrigadeBoats thanks; that's quite helpful, and in line with what I was thinking.
Start by cutting a square rectangle....!
