Tony, the 'row vs wade' saga continues, eh? As we get older, we need to make allowances for age. It's just inevitable.

I fished some from the first one and it is real stable. Dot, myself and three kids would canoe with several people on weekends. I never worried about it tipping. Brought it out here and a tornado got it the first year. Built one for Jim H. last year and we have had it out on the White. Very stable, I would have no worry about tipping. It is still not wading, it is fishing from a boat..

I'd never get used to a kayak. I did have a cute little pontoon boat that I used for a while, but it was much like fishing from a boat. Finally sold it to VFB member Jack Lehman. Jack loves it. Have you thought about putting at least one "outrigger" on the canoe you're building? If so, you could stand up when need be. Just a thought.
