I have a 14' vee hull with a 55lb minn kota and swivel seats. It's a handy little boat. 55lb thrust is just about right with two people and fishing gear. The telescoping handles are handy on tiller models. I think a jon would be a bit harder to push than a vee hull but if you're going to be by yourself 40lb would be sufficient.
