Hi, I have had no problems getting around with my skeeter. I have also never had a problem with tipping back or forward in it.
It is a big float tube, I think its about five feet long and about four or five feet wide. It's got lots of room for storage. I also have a rod holder on the side of it and I pull around a homemade livewell with no problems.
If your going to be at coyote lake this saturday, I will let you take it out. See if you like it, before you buy one. My skeeter is blue/olivish green sort'a. I should of been a float tube dealer, just kidding...

See ya there, bassnskeeter :-)
