I have an Old Town Predator 13'8, which I think is no longer made. It's big enough for me at 280, a half dozen cork decoys, and as much ammo as I want to carry. It's plenty stable by my standards, but I'm a guy who pretty much grew up in canoes, so I'm pretty tolerant. I have hunted out of it, but generally prefer to hide it (hides much better than a canoe) and hunt from shore.
