I had one for three years and enjoyed it. It is not a big lake boat depending on what size your looking at? They are a little tippy but you can get into some real shallow water with them making for some good fly fishing. The main reason I bought mine was so that I could slide it off the utility trailer and launch it anywhere I wanted to, no need for a boat launch. I would not recommend it for a family boat because of it being a little tippy ( again it depends on the size ).
My $0.02 worth.

I guided for years using 14' Jonboats and 20 horse kickers.
Super rigs in the right water.....
