WeldBilt 1648V

Go Shallow. Haul Heavy. Built to Last. The WeldBilt 1648V is a versatile, all-welded aluminum jon boat designed for hunters, anglers, and anyone who needs a dependable workhorse on the water. With a semi-V front for smoother handling in light chop and a wide, stable 48” bottom, this boat is ready to take on rivers, backwaters, and everything in between.

Measuring 16 feet in length, the 1648V offers a great balance of space and maneuverability. It’s light enough to tow with ease, yet tough enough to handle gear, dogs, decoys, or even a couple of buddies for a day of fishing or duck hunting. The .080-gauge aluminum hull is durable and built to withstand the harshest environments, season after season.

Whether you're building out your ultimate shallow water rig or need a reliable utility boat, the WeldBilt 1648V gives you the confidence to go where others can’t.
