Short-vined/Bush Watermelon Recommends?

Hi all...grew Crimson Sweet watermelons (at least I think they were) last season to great success - big, tasty, and lots of 'em. The key I found was planting in a heavy compost/soil mix and watering the living bejeebus outta them.

But...the vines were rather aggressive. To the point that they made their way into my neighbor's yard and seemingly took over half the bleedin' garden!

Anyone have a recommendation for a shorter-vined watermelon? As for fruit size, a bigger one would be preferable. Seedless is better, so I don't have to listen to the kids complain. ; )

Thanks!

Jason
