I have fished out of a Sun Dolphin many time trolling for trout(boring but good eating).  It is a good boat and very stable.  For some reason though his seems to take on water.  Not inside the boat but in between the hull and the interior.  It doesn't seem to matter, it is full of foam after all, the weird thing is though we can't figure out how it is getting in.  There is no crack in the hull and all the plugs are snug.  But every time after we fish we can tip the boat up and water will pour out of the oar lock holes.  The only other thing is it is kinda heavy.  It is nearly impossibe to load by yourself were even a 14 foot aluminium jon boat is fairly easy to load.  By the way since this thread went down this road, I've never understood weight ratings on boats.  Almost all have a limit that seems rediculously small if not impossible.  My buddies sun dolphin (whick may not be the same one as you are asking about) has us over the limit.  But most boats have a weight limit or a person limit as if it means something different.  Maybe someone can shed some light on this.

I think they rate them low because of liability. I've wondered that before and that is all I can figure.

Ozzey, your desire fits your need, nothing wrong with that.  I know if I see a sun dolphin this summer, I'm gonna ask if the captains name is ozzey though,lol,....so don't be surprised or nervous if there's a red boat approaching you, it's not the fire or police dept,....just me

Ozzey, I owned this boat before.  Great little boat.  Tri hull very stable.  Lights, livewell, storage,  fairly good size deck considering the size. I had a 4 HP Nissan (4 strike) on it, pushed me around at about 8-10mph.  I weigh 220.  

Mine was outfitted with a TM, FF, as well.  I also like the the center part, being lower than the deck.  Easy to maintain.  If I was in the market for a 11'2" boat again, I would have no issue buying another.  I think you can put up to a 10hp 4 stroke, or 15 hp 2 stroke on it as well.  I upgraded to an 18 ft Aluminum Fisher just because I wanted to get on bigger lakes and wanted more space.  My son and I have many good memories in our little boat!
