A river craft comprises a hull, such as a canoe hull, having a bow and a stern; and an outboard seat extending outward from one of the stern and the bow. The outboard seat preferably extends from the stern and faces forward, and is lower than the gunwhale of the river craft. The outboard seat comprises a seating platform, and a connecting member connecting the one of the bow and the stern to the seating platform, the seating platform being wider than the connecting member. The hull narrows transversely towards the stern. The stern is sufficiently narrow adjacent the outboard seat to allow the knees of a person sitting on the outboard seat to extend on either side of the stern. The outboard seat may be vertically adjustable or may include a second seating platform lower than the first seating platform. A ballast holder, such as a water tank, at the other end of the river craft may be filled with ballast to balance a person sitting on the outboard seat. A river craft is also provided with a port in the hull between the bow and stern, the port opening downward and having upstanding sides, including a front side and a rear side; and a motor mounted in the port, the motor being fastenable in an operating position below the port and in a retracted position within the port.
