Default recommendation would be a Lifetimer 14 or 16 Skiff, but they are pricey and can be hard to find. Lifetimer is currently listing a 14ft with a 20hp outboard for $16,500+tax (See link below, just scroll down a bit).

I owned a 14ft lifetimer and they are great boat. The main benefit of the 16ft model is the higher sides - which I think is a must for anything in the ocean. Both sizes are very capable boats with a proper V-shaped hull and much heavier duty material/construction that can cut through chop. If you look at riveted boats, check the deadrise at teh transom - most are almost completely flat - which makes they really rough in any sort of chop. I think Lund makes one called 'Alaskan' that is a bit more rugged.
If it was me, I'd also keep my eyes open for a Gregor - semi-welded construction and much more heavy duty than a Lund. Not super common in the lower mainland but tons for sale down in Washington:
