    Default Lowe 1448T Jon boat would be a great, practical setup for most......

    ________________________

    Buy a 14-15 foot all welded Jon boat with a 0.100" aluminum hull that is 48" wide at the bottom and taller 20" transom.

    Get a galvanized trailer with largest wheels possible.

    I would put the newly designed Yamaha 25 hp 4 stroke 20" shaft tiller outboard.

    Put a 50# thrust 12 volt Minn Kota bow mount autopilot {white Salt Water model) with two deep cycle batteries.

    Have some 8 foot oars too, for drifting rivers.

    Get a large screen fishfinder/GPS
