Must be towable with mid-size SUV (e.g, Ford Explorer V-6) or mid-size truck.
Must accommodate three persons fishing.
Must be light and shallow enough to get up into very shallow creeks in Big Bend region.
Must not be destroyed by the occasional, unintentional, slow speed run-in with a rock or oyster bar.
Must have power trim and tilt and very shallow running outboard.
Preferably center console (and livewell and front-mounted trolling motor).
Did I say it must operate very shallow (and be light enough to push when the water gets super-skinny)?
Must be reasonably capable of beating across Apalachee bay chop on way to the inshore spots.
Must have enough freeboard to allow going out to the shallow grouper rocks (15 to 20 deep or so, but not looking for an "offshore" boat really).
MUST be long-term saltwater durable, high quality, all aluminum transom, all welded (assuming aluminum).
