I'm debating between the 12' and 9' Skookum Steelheader Cataraft. I thought it would be nice to have the option of having a second seat that the 12' model has. The 9' is 1 man only so you have to go w/ someone else anyway to work out the shuttle. Would the 12' pretty much handle the same for 1 person as the 9' since I would still be fishing by myself most of the time? I was wondering about the balance of the 12' if I'm by myself on the river? The 9' isn't exactly the lightest cataraft so I figure the 12 can't be that much heavier. Can the 12' hold in the river with 2 guys on an anchor? What are your thoughts? Which way to go?
Thanks,
Jim
