Might I suggest a pontoon boat for your needs.

Pros:

-PLENTY of room
-Able to tow tube/ski
-Low maintenance
-Safety/Difficult to sink
-Did I mention PLENTY of room?
-Nice deck to fish from
-Economical
-Sturdy

Cons:

-Drives like a "parking lot" (no big deal to me)
-Reduced "cool" factor (no big deal to me)
-?

We own a 20' Bennington and wouldn't trade it for anything else.
Its nice to cruise or anchor up and take a nap. We can invite
a few friends and take a Coleman grill along and we've got
an instant party. You can order them now with a head/changing
booth.

Oh,

If you get one and your brother-in-law asks to borrow it,
make up some excuse not too.

You forgot to mention...TOTALLY useless in any chop....

Its not an offshore vessel no.



"Chop" can (and does) exist in places other than "offshore". In some of the
Finger Lakes of Western NY, for instance, there are regular wind patterns
which create pretty spooky conditions.
