The Malibu Stealth is ideal for your application, it's exactly what it was designed for.
I'm with Jim on this one. It sounds like a paddle kayak is what your wife is looking for and the stealth meets your requirements as well. I kayak fished the Delta a couple years ago and didn't need a Hobie at all. A lot of the areas up there are nice slow current and perfect for paddling. Plus its a lot of reed fishing and you want an easy form of reverse. With a hobie you would end up paddling it often to get into fishy areas and they don't handle near as well as other kayaks.

Find a shop to test paddle some yaks and find what you like best.
