Thanks Bbrons. Have you ever over loaded the boat? It has a pretty low weight capacity (425 lbs) but I'm convinced it can take more. With two decent sized guys and gear you're already pushing the limit.

I am 6'2 190lbs, my fishing buddy is 6'4 and over 250lbs and we have fished together in my boat multiple times without an issue. It would also carry my two batteries, Minn Kota electric and our gear. Way over the limit and not a problem. Even when overloaded their is plenty of freeboard if waves would come up. I have never felt safer in any other stillwater boat.
