Hi,

I think two type of telescopes would be good for you:

1- Dobsonian:

Pro: cheap, easy to set up, and easy to work with

Cons: Needs collimation every once in a while, sensitive to temperature change

2- Refractor (a good achromat should be good for your purpose)

Pro: No collimation is needed, not too sensitive to temperature change, sharp view, wider field compared to Dobsonians, and no maintenance at all. 

Cons: Price is normal for Achromats and high for Apochromats, Needs more attention while setting up compared to Dobsonians.

If you can attend one of the meetings, we can talk about it. Hope this helps you.
