I've had my 15' Alaskan since 92 and it's never had a leak. It's pretty stable and rides pretty high, I feel pretty safe in it. Had it up to Neah Bay and all over Hood Canal as well as the Columbia all year for fishing and duck hunting. I do like the setup of the new Lodge series though. I have seen a ton of Lunds at Wind River. Might be worth looking into.
