Great boat. But really would have liked a fully flat floor.

For a 14 foot tinny I was impressed with how little lean the boat gave when the guy and fish was on one side, a standard tinny would have leaned way more.

You can add a Kapsten boat collar to a standard tinnie and it has the same effect as the stabi craft.
