We boat... but traveling to always new areas with a boat just doesn't work for us. Time has taught us that we prefer boating/fishing in areas we know. I seriously don't want to learn how to fish an area every time I show up. So, we tour without. Fish and play in our home area.
With that, we travel extensively with our truck camper, couple months at a time usually. But we tow a support trailer that carries Kayaks, bikes and motorcycle(s). And lot's of water. To each their own... I'd start camping with a rental. Seriously. Try a couple of things out, see what they are like, what you enjoy. We own a 5th wheel...absolutely love it for working out of. Wouldn't travel or camp out of it every again. Can't stand it. RV's; they are not all the same, and everyone is different.
Don't try and talk yourself into something. Or let others. Which is whey I suggest renting, even if for only a few nights. You'll know real quick things you like and those that you can't stand.
Cheers
