Sounds like you will be launching solo most of time....
the centre consoles in a small boat , no seat is the best option.
a 4.8-5m can still be easily launched once you have some practice.
also dont forget have an electric tilt and trim on the motor will do wonders for you regardless of wether its a tiller steer or console.
