I use a boat called a Gheenoe. I have the 13' model. It resembles a canoe but that's about as far as it goes. It is far far more stable than either a canoe or a jon boat. They are rated for a 6hp, I use an 8hp with no problems in fact a lot of guys put 15's on them. They can be trailered, or carried on the roof of an SUV, or the 13' can fit in the bed of a truck, as shown on their website:

They run about $900 but can be found used. I enjoy mine, I can stand up in it with no problem, two can fish no problem. It weighs about 110lbs. There are customized gheenoes available through the original owner's son. His business is called: www.customgheenoe.com

They can be fitted with front or rear casting decks, live wells, special kevlar models, etc.
