Riverwire sells several sizes of personal "watercraft" from float tubes to a
2-person stand-up pontoon.
There's a link to them (and links to some of their videos) on my website.

Yep. I think you're making it much more complicated and expensive than
it needs to be. Look at a belly boat (in some parts of the couuntry
they are called float tubes) Cabellas, Orvis and several other places
have them.....you can try out a cheap once from under $75. It will
floatt you where evey you want to go -- ride the riffles, and you can
walk it through the shallows.

Are there any other types of boats that would work better?
