What do y'all think about this idea i had for a small kayak type motorized fishing boat.

You might want to look at the designs of some small duck hunting boats.
 
Shallow draft is useless when you cant go betweer two trees beacuse of "wings." What you want is a gheenoe.
 
I like the idea but I think you could get a stable boat without the wings. Kayaks and Gheenoe's achieve it.

As soon as I saw your design my brain started working. I started thinking about a 40lb thrust Trolling motor with a twist throttle mounted inside the boat on the left (if your a right handed fisherman) and a pedal type steering control. or you could go with a pedal throttle and a hand twist rudder. I have seen kayaks like that at Gander mtn with electric motors mounted under the hull. they are like $1200.

Cool Idea though.
