I purchased this canoe for my canoe partners, my wife and our 100lbs golden retriever. We paddle mostly in the BWCA and Quetico, so we needed a stable and light weight canoe that could carry a good amount of gear and weight. The Souris River Quetico 18.5 worked out better than I ever could have hoped for. I would recommend this canoe to anyone that needs to carry a load and is looking for stability while fishing the big water of the canoe country.
