Default Advice on Inflatable craft

Hey All!

I know we have quite a few warriors out there in 'yaks and rafts so I was looking for some advice.

- I need something inflatable, because I have no place to store a hull or tubes.
- Want to keep it under $700 if possible.
- Using in small rivers, and large flat lakes.
- Needs Electric motor mount.

Here's the kicker, I had ruptured disks in the back, so I need to sit as high as possible. I also can't sit for more than 45 mins at a time so I need to stand frequently, or more often than not.

I was thinking of a 9' pontoon like this, but I would have to beach every so often to stand. Also, the chair is not as high as I like it:



I would prefer one with a deck, but the only ones I found are well over $1k:



I guess kayaks don't come with high seats because of the issues with tipping?

If anyone can recommend something that would work, it would be greatly appreciated!
