I owned a 15' Duroboat with a walk through for a couple of years. They are a wet ride and you have to dress properly if you venture into rough water......having said that, those babies are really tough. I finally got rid of it because I had the habit of getting into really rough water and I needed a bigger boat to keep from getting killed. Nevertheless, it was me and my fishing partner that couldn't take the rough water.....not the Duroboat, it was verrry seaworthy. The guys that had to ride in the front seat would complain a lot about the hard ride. Overall a good boat for the price.
