I just wanted to thank all of you for your comments and suggestions.
We currently own a canoe but because of a recent back injury, I cannot
paddle anymore (lower back...cannot twist). A year ago when we bought
the canoe it wasn't an issue...now I can barely pick it up. We didn't
use the canoe much because my son was barely a year old. My dr and PT
said I can row since I don't have to twist my lower back. That's why
we were looking into the pontoon fishing boats.
The summer's almost over though so maybe by next summer we'll figure
something out. By then our 2 yr old son might know what "no" and
"stop" mean...maybe not.

Thanks!

There are adapters that allow one to row a canoe.

You'd still be left with the problem of moving it around, but if you
and your wife both go, she could do it unless it's very* heavy.

Often taunted by trout. Almost entirely harmless. Really.
