Center Console bay boat with a T-Top and a yammy. The longer the better. They get real small real quick the further offshore you go. And as much HP as you can afford to outrun the random waterspouts. Most use the console to store boat stuff, but you can put a potty in there. It's not 100% privacy, more like 20% privacy. Something my buddy does in his bay boat is let the ladies do their business into the recirculating livewell back by the motor, the water recirculates so the urine is cleared pretty quickly, and for privacy men just have to go fish on the front of the boat for a minute. No #2 and No toilet paper though. You'd have to do a console solution for that. Of which there are many.
I must also recommend perusing the website "TheHullTruth" dot come, they have a panhandle section and more information and helpful friendlies than you can ever read. What this site is for GA deer hunting, that site is for panhandle boating. You should check it out.
If it were me... I'd keep a nice jonboat for my lake fishing and get on old 22 Sea Pro with newer power for the coast. And then charter 2 or 3 times a year for far-offshore, while I do my best to make friends with people who own offshore boats that are always looking for people to chip in on fuel/bait/ice and help cleanup and rig.
