I've many miles of firsthand experience in a Bell Wildfire, which is said to be the same canoe, though I can't personally confirm it. I'm 6'0" 180 pounds and tend to travel light so my largest total load may have been 225 pounds. I've paddled extensively, with and without gear, on moderate sized lakes and moving water up to class III.
I love this boat. When kneeling it is remarkably to my liking. The initial stability is a bit tender but settles in quite solidly as you heel it over. I've recently re-outfitted it as a primarily sitting boat and widened it amidships by 1" (you can do this with Royalex!). This increased the initial stability when sitting just a wee bit, and also increased the rocker by an even smaller amount. Google for Wildfire and there is another gent who wrote this mod up and explained it. The only difference in performance that I have noticed is a tiny bit more initial stability, which is what I was seeking. I'm going to re-re-outfit it again to make sure I can still get my feet under the seat to kneel as I much prefer kneeling in rapids.
The tumblehome is about right and makes reaching the water for a vertical forward power stroke a snap. It also allows a number of fancy solo strokes and freestyle moves. I like reaching out and forward for a draw stroke and then continuing the turn to the paddle side with a sweep that arcs under the boat. No problem in the Wildfire.
The boat is very forgiving in moving water / whitewater with its relatively blunt entry. As reported it is not the fastest rig out there, though I have never had any issue at all keeping up with even fast light tandems. I think it is because at 14' I'm playing with much less wetted surface. The Wildfire is not going to win any races but neither is it a chore to keep it at cruising speeds all day. It is not perfect at holding a straight line and will weathercock like all boats, but it never breaks loose and skids into a turn. Trim can be important in winds and more than once I have added rocks for ballast to keep from blowing off the wind, but this would have been in extreme conditions, like 30 knots of wind. It really is a joy on moving water up to solid class II. Sideslips, eddies, ferries, whatever you will it to do and have the skills for, it will pull off. Again, as reported, it runs just a bit wet in bigger class III waves. Though I have run plenty of class III in it with nary a capsize it does keep you on your toes and you will need to stop and bail every now and then. With a sharp eddy line you better have your lean down pat.
At 40 pounds with the vinyl gunnels and end caps I'm still good throwing it on my roof racks unassisted and it is not too bad on a long portage, although I've a removable portage yoke for that purpose. Without the yoke it balances well on the front edge of the seat for moving it around.
This boat will be a gift to my kids someday, there is no way I would ever consider selling. It has become part of me.
For lots of heavy class III+ I would use something else. For miles and miles and miles of touring on big windy lakes I would use something else.
For an all around moderate size lake, moving water up to solid class II, day tripper to week long touring boat, it is perfect for me. Not a jack-of-all trades, but a perfect blend for what it is intended for.
If it's not too late for $750 I would snap it up in a heartbeat. (Where did you say it was located? .....
