First, thanks for all the input. I will be hauling whatever I buy in my Tundra pickup. I guess it was foolish to posy such an open ended question, but I am seeking to gather all the information I can before driving to Portland (100 plus miles) to make a purchase. I still would like a bit of information on the stability of both vessels. I am 67, almost 68, and not as steady as I used to be. I want something that I will not worry about tipping over on me. I sure as heck do not plan to stand in it but will lean over when releasing a fish. Jim Harper
