Just what I've experienced overall. Aluminum pirogue = noisy.(usually heavier too) Fiberglass (or wood) = quiet with fiberglass being lighter.
The center keel makes a pirogue difficult to turn when push poling across a mud flat and won't allow it to slide sideways off stumps or grass clumps.
I think there's a dealer in Columbia, I'd recommend testing one before buying.
Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.
