I have owned a Radisson for over 5 years and absolutely love it! It's only 40 pounds and as stable as any canoe I have ever seen. You would be hard pressed to dunk one of these baby's. One of it's excellent features is the ability to use the paddles as oars. Due to its light weight you can just about leave a wake behind you rowing. I have caught many trout and even bluefish trolling with the canoe while rowing. "You won't go wrong with this one".
