(Long time lurker, first post)
I purchased this same canoe a couple years back and it worked great to fish 2 adults out of until I purchased my first boat. Pretty stable canoe, but you cannot easily stand up in it. The front and back are somewhat padded seats and the middle is a bench with a water proof compartment in it. I can try to answer any other questions if you have any.
I never transported mine, but it is difficult for one adult to move by himself over long distances, not sure how old your kids are, but you may need some help to carry it to the water. I purchased mine in the spring at DSG, normally they have some sort of rebate on all kayaks and canoes for a short period of time. If you are ever in Michigan I will sell you mine for a decent price since I rarely ever use it anymore!
