Boston Whaler or Carolina Skiff would be my choice of small/ simple/ new, but see what is out there for used also. This is not a good time of year to buy unless it is from a “good” friend, prices are up for the season.

I’d go with the inflatable, but the ones with the rigid bottoms (fiberglass). There a little more expensive but are safe and durable. They also perform well with small motors, like 25HP.

Fiber glass types are the best because they completely resist rusting. Salt water is very corrosive to metal.
Good Luck…

Go to your yellow pages and find boat dealers that sell lund boats. or try on line and look for the same thing.
