How were you planning on getting a boat around without a truck? I have a Pelican 11'4" with an old rental 8hp Mercury and a Motor Guide 54# bow mount. Cool little boat for what I do locally, 2 seats, a livewell and lights. I paid $500 used with a trailer and bow mount, you just need to look. I found some 10' boats on e-bay for like $200 too.

Good Luck!
