The weight limit for a 14 ft aluminum Jon boat typically ranges from 800 to 1,200 pounds, depending on the specific model and manufacturer. This limit includes the combined weight of passengers, gear, and any additional equipment. It's important to check the boat's capacity plate for exact specifications, as exceeding the weight limit can compromise safety and performance. Always ensure that weight distribution is balanced for optimal handling.
i have an 8 ft aluminum Jon boat and the weight limit is 350 lbs for all your gear and you.

It all depends on the purpose of the craft and the weather. On a good day, you'll see any size of boat, but on a bad day, I'd recommend at least a 18ft boat (not an aluminum Jon boat, fiberglass is usually a safe bet)

I came across your question while I was searching the net for the same thing. Have you found anything ?
Yes
A jon boat is a flat bottomed fishing boat. It is made of wood or aluminium. They may have up to three bench seats for passengers.They are usually 6.1 by 4.1 meters in size. They are not built for speed, they are designed to be slow.
It is a flat bottom boat, usually with a low gunwale. Thus meaning it has little freeboard. Jon boats are used mainly for water fowl hunting and running about in swampy waters.

not sure how wide your Jon boat is but I would go with a 3.5HP or 5HP outboard no bigger
5mph or less
