You mentioned RIVERS, MOTORS and SIZE.
I am going to suggest Pontoons. Plus you have oars. Even with an electric motor, you might want at least one fin in the water to steer.
You can steer with just the motor, but you really have to be going at a good clip and that drains battery. You could steer with oars, but that too takes away from the hands free fishing.
Hopefully there would be access that would allow you to back a small trailer with the pontoons right next to the water.
I fish allot by myself, and I am not a strong woman, but I can slide the boat off and on my trailer with ease.
I even saw a killer deal on two pontoons plus a trailer for $1,500. on another sire, so deals are out there.
Welcome to BFT and hope you can stay awhile.[
