Get yourself a canoe - you'll be happier
Not necessarily.
It's kinda like guns; it's hard to find one that will be great at everything.
I have four canoes, from a 12 foot solo up through a 17 footer.
Also have three kayaks, a 14, a 15, and a 17 footer.
Have had a tandem and a couple smaller whitewater boats in the past (gave that up for the more peaceful lake paddling).

Have fun!
