I've mentioned it before, but...
For you guys who want a small, light, easy to handle boat that will give good performance with a small motor, you can't do much better than a Porta-bote. They come in 8,10,12, and 14' models. In the smaller sizes, there are quite a few used ones to be found on Craigslist or Ebay.
You can fold it up to car top, keep it set up to haul in the back of a pickup, or get a small trailer to haul it. I have the 14' model. I keep it set up most of the time and have a cheap Harbor Frt trailer that I haul it on. I also just built a rack on my pickup to car top it set up when I pull my camp trailer. The 14' weighs all of 105lb. The smaller ones are much lighter.
It only ships 4" of water and it will really fly with a minimal motor.
