I would like to collect power boat recommendations that satisfy these
conditions:


FIRST, you really need to take the USCG small boater course,
or the Power Squadron boating course.


- max about 20 feet (absolute max 25 feet)
- used for scuba diving (underwater photography) and island
hopping, no other major uses (no fishing)
- built to support the use along Florida coast, esp west coast
and the Florida Keys in the south, the sides should be high
enough to protect against small waves
- preferably built-in motor (not the attached-type) to provide
more space in the back, this is not goging to be a race
boat, max 20-30 miles/hour is enough
- a small platform in the back for easy diving and access to
equipment
- has to be easy to trailer because it will be carried on a trailer
to many different locations frequently
- occupancy max 2 people, but it has to be easy to operate even for a
single person
- it should to be designed to sleep 2 people on the deck by easy
removal of the seats to make flat sleeping surface and by
installing some overhead bug screen
