I've had a 10 foot Bandit pirogue the last two seasons, and I love it. It's alot more stabler than other pirogues I been in (never flipped it), and being aluminum it is pretty durable.

Chapman.

If your not going with a pirogue, get a MoMarsh Fatboy.

They are back in business under new management and the boats are VERY stable.

Get a otter stealth if your hunting someonwhere you haven't got to carry it no where far. They great boats and I love mine with it's little 2hp motor. But it's no fun haven to carry by man somewhere. It weights 120 with nothing in it. But it's very stable.

Don't know what Chapman's cost but Gus' in Sliddel has got a couple of nice fiberglass ones w/molded seats, with nice sweep to'em for stability, cost $400. Picture he had showed 2 guys in one...they weren't 2 "Bigwaters" for sure... I'm not affiliated with this place, just tryin to help.

At last count I had 14 chapman's at the camp. From 17 years old to aout five years old. I think that says about all I need to on the subject.
