My wife and I have done the BWCA with a variety of boats, including Royalex ones that I can't imagine using now because they weigh too dang much. Do yourself a favor, whatever hull design you get, get a Kev UL. I know, they're pricey. But it will be a boat you don't "age out of." It will always feel light. As for a tandem hull, I'd suggest the Wenonah MNII. Great boat, and it will handle the load you describe. Good luck.
