Swift Water Rescue boat

What kind of boat would you sugest for swift water rescue, with these conditions rivers up to class 4 that very in depth from 6 in. to 30 + feet , were useing a 16 ft double wide flat bottom thats almost useless, we rounded anouther prop off yesterday, Im thinking some type of infatibale zodiac or mercury 12 to 16 ft, not sure about the prop, jet prop, or a prop with a bell and a shallow water drive. your thoughts? what about pricing and where to get it?

It is about 14 feet long. We run most of the river witch has class 4 rapids and up. We also use catarafts. Feel free to messege me if you want more specifics and pics.
