Well, I guess I have to speak up for Outcast! I've had mine for, like, 8 years, and it's still going strong (battle-scarred as it may be!). :D

Outcast has some relationship history with other brands you've heard of, as well, such as Buck's Bags, Blue Heron (or is it 'White Heron'? Whichever you see in the Cabela's & BPS catalogs) and Dave Scadden (I just heard about that relationship at the latest Sportsmen's Expo). They've been around for a number of years, have a history of building a quality product (for a price, admittedly!), and my Customer Service experiences have been nothing less than total satisfaction.

Take a look at their website: www.outcastboats.com

IMHO, I don't think you could ever be disappointed with an Outcast purchase.
