Wenonah kevlar canoes are excellent canoes for Boundary Waters trips. They are lightweight, stable, durable, handle well, and are easy to portage. I like them a lot.
That said I would not recommend one as an all-purpose boat for a novice canoer, or for hunting. Kevlar boats are downright fragile compared to Royalex or aluminum. They need to be loaded and boarded floating in enough water to prevent damage - read up on "wet-foot vs dry-foot canoes".
I have an old 12' Field and Stream Kay-Noe - essentially a cheaper Old town Pack 12' solo canoe. It's my go-to fishing boat. I've (unsuccessfully) hunted deer from it and gone camping in it.
If I were looking for a hunting canoe I would get a Royalex (or comprable synthetic) canoe 13'-16' long with bench (not racing-style) seats. Sit backwards in the rear seat, put your pack in front of you, and it will do everything you ask.
In my opinion, Kevlar is too fragile for stands and antlers, costs several times what aluminum and plastic boats cost, and degrades from UV radiation. Aluminum is too noisy and heavy, but lasts forever. A 12' solo boat like mine fills up too fast and handles poorly with a load - and will not take a passenger in any comfort, for any time. A kayak just doesn't have the storage capacity that a canoe offers. A generic, all-purpose, reasonably-lightweight plastic boat is by far my preference for this application.
