Hobie cat with an outboard

[Crazyboat]

wouldn't it be simpler and SAFER to just use pontoons from an old pontoon boat
and modify it to suit your needs ??
the canoes could fill with water and sink - the sealed pontoons won't.
then you could do the Tom Sawyer thing all the way to New Orleans !!
just a thought.

I checked into toons but after adding everything it would be heavy and I'd like to be able to toss it around on my own, but thanks.

2 knocks on this, inflatable and human powered.

If it were glass or plastic I could use it like a craigcat but I'd also like to be a bit higher off the water, my rivers aren't exactly clean or always calm.

Yeah. I knew it wasn't for you. Just interesting that other are coming up with similar ideas.
What are your anticipated specs?

Two long canoes would be even better. The freight canoes on the Yukon are in the 20 feet and up class.
