Have you had it in the water? Never been in one, heard they are really stable. Saw two above size guys fishing in one. Seemed to be doing ok.
 
I had one of the Scanoe boats...same material just a pointed bow and more canoe-like. The material is almost indestrucible, makes no noise scraping over a rocky creek bottom, and sat for 4 years in the weather with no deterioration or breakage of the hull. Sold it after 10 years for more than I paid for it. Ran a 4.5 Merc on it and because it's wider than a regular canoe it was very stable. It is what it is but it's a lot more than a cheapo plastic boat. Oh, and by the way, they work pretty well as a big assed sled on a snowy hill :)
 
I've got one of these that I bought from a Tin Boat member years ago. Mines missing the foam and the front plastic. I put in a carpeted 1/2" plywood floor (2 piece to work around the tubing for the seats) and replaced the missing front plastic with plywood. It's a great small lake boat.
