Dumb questions only exist in the minds of those that already know the answer!!!
Vince, I’m with you mate!!! I’ve never seen the inside of a canoe and wondered the same thing!!!
I’m just glad you’re the one that asked!!!

kiw perspective: Have you considered a sit on kayak such as the Johnson outdoors watercraft range an american firm who make stuff here under licence. I use one in NZ for coastal fishing and on the local lakes for hunting and fishing, real good for sneakin up on bambi - you don't look like a human until its too late. I have A 4.2 Meter "prowler" which is 25kg empty, it travels well and is very stable, I can dive off it for Paua (abalone) etc. I can put another person (or shot animal) in the rear and still paddle without problems, drop me a line for more info

I started out with a home built box was 8" long 18" wide 12"high made out of 1 sheet of 12mm ply. it worked ok on the lake we shot a few birds out of it the flat bum made it very stable. we now have good kayaks they go heaps faster and work great. I have one thats made for 2 small people I mounted the front seat back just a little when im on my own it is slightly nose heavy but with my dog or some ducks/geese or 1 of my children in the back it sits level and goes like the clappers. I shot 3 canada geese out of it this season. they were on the shore I aim just off the mob and paddle slowly in towards them. they usually dont take off untill you are withih 40yrds. I get in close give 2 strong paddles them put paddle down and pick up shotty located between my legs poking out the front. I had my 8yr old son with me on the lake and had 4 mallards with 4 shots as they were flying over us there was 3 dead in the air at the same time. not bad from a pump man even if I am blowing my own trumpet a bit. try a paddle/ double ended about 7" long if it works it is easy to put it down and grab ya gun. hope that gives you an idea or two.
