Hard to beat an aluminum jonboat for what you need .And they'll last for a lifetime if you take care of them . I have an Alumacraft 10'x36" I use in small ponds . It'll fit in most trucks and with it's 36" bottom is very stable. Room for two and moves around great with a small trolling motor . I use a 34# thrust Minn Kota I got from Cabelas . gillchaser
