jhap I did not see this thread. Cheenoe is similiar Riverhawk, you can not get a more stable boat for its size. we have used them for years and stand up and spray out of them. We are now dealers and shh but I can get you 20% off the prices here. http://www.riverhawkboats.com/msrppricelist.htm
this is the one i suggest for your pond. http://www.riverhawkboats.com/13duckboat.htm
I like the middle seat removed but if you like the other 13 footer is good as well. If you plan to move it from this pond to other locations it is heavy so not as good an option. No idea how much to get to CAL???
