Okay, I really need some help. I'm a bit of a boating newbie and
would like a suggestion for a type of boat that would work for my new
home.

I know what I want, I just dont know if it exists. I want a small
runabout like a Sea Ray. About 16 feet or so. It has to have a VERY
shallow draft - maybe 12 inches or less. I'm interested in a
"comfort" boat, not a fishing type boat. And, it has to be around
2000 pounds or so to be towed by my Wrangler. A few years old is fine
and I would pay 10-15k. Am I dreaming? Is there such a thing? The
advertisements in Boattrader.com rarely show draft or towing weight,
so I have no info to go on.
=====================================

For a 12 inch draft you will need a jet boat with a very flat bottom.
