Yes | No | Report from prairieghost wrote 1 year 4 days ago i'd have to say a canoe, especially a square stern. some of those will accommodate up to a 5 hp motor. i had a coleman scanoe for twenty years that had a 40 beam. i installed a seat in the middle and oar locks for aluminum paddles and it handled everything from lakes to class III whitewater equally well. hauled wife and kids on outings, decoys and dog for hunting and up to two other adults for fishing. could drag that thing over extremely rough terrain and still load in the pickup by myself.
