Hi KBC,

This my area, small flat bottom boats. We fly fish out of 8, 10, 12, 14

and
16 foot flat bottom boats. Both aluminum and fiberglass.

Try to find something that is more than 36" at the bottom/rear.

Valco makes an aluminum pram/Jon boat that is 44" at the bottom/rear

with a
55" beam. They come in 8, 10, 12 and 14 feet with everything else

remaining
the same but the length. It is only .050" thick and riveted but is a

good
boat @ ~$1,000.00US.

The 10 foot model is about 100# and will be perfect for just you.

FLOOR WIDTH = 42" +

I have a U14 Valco for sale. Deep transom requires a longshaft motor.
Comes with a low hours 15 Mariner longshaft and depth finder and electric
trolling motor on a galvanized shorelander trailer. $2100. Is 69" wide.
