We use an aluminum skiff inside the river.

With respect to the original question- a master angler with a small console might be nice, if you can get past the 1977 vintage "sea patrol" styling. I hate to say it but I think I saw 3 hulls in the 18-23 foot length with seacraft VDH style shapes at the boat ramp yesterday. So if you couldn't find a "just right" seacraft, maybe a small sailfish, like a 208?

yea I don't like the cap on the older MA, the lines on a 20 Potter without any bow rails (took my old low rail off) look sleek, Love the newer years 21s with a T top like the ones in the SeaCraft Ads ...Have had my current 20 now for 30 years , so would like to stay in the family. The next best in line would be a Sailfish..or a 21 Reg (no longer made)....OR I will bite the bullet and repower and do some work....
