If you're interested in a fantastic, low 'sneak' boat, GREAT for photography, duck hunting, fishing, I highly recommend looking into a
Poke Boat.
I picked up a used one after years of searching and being jealous of watching the ease at which my buddy could carry, paddle and maneuver this amazing little vessel. At 28lbs, I can carry it with one hand, while carrying other equipment in the other. It is so easy to drag long distances, I can move it with ease with just one hand on a paddle while the other is at-the-ready, it tracks well. Super well-made. Incredibly safe and stable, you literally sit below the waterline. Yes, new ones are VERY EXPENSIVE!! But, if you have the means, you'll never feel like it wasn't worth the money. Or, do what I did, seek out a used one. I paid $650 for mine and it's been worth every penny.
