I fish by myself most of the time. Being retired and living on the lake, I go when I feel like it. I have an 18' Pro V that I bought used in very nice shape with a 90 hp Suzuki and a 15 hp kicker. When I bought, motor trolling was not allowed in Northern WI, but was shortly after. I really like it. I still cast most of the time but do troll and it is great for that. It fishes three very easily, plenty of room. October and November it would be nice sometimes to have a console to hunker down behind but you dress for it. I have taken a pair of ski goggles out late in the year and used them when running on plane on the way home is a sleety snow storm but that would have been crap regardless ;>).
If I was fishing with young kids, that might be different. For now, when we have youngsters up, take them out on the pontoon which is a fishing model with trolling motor, etc.
