Maybe the north face VE 25 is worth a look.
Layman swears by them, but of course I never know if that is because they are great tents, or he got it for free and therefore feels obliged to hype it up:D

I don’t know if this picture will come through, but here is the cupholder I use. I drill it into my thwart…Works like a charm…

Hi Charlie, tom-o here.
I like mountain hardware tents; my only complaint is that the bug netting is on the inside of the nylon door, so if you want to adjust the ventilation of the door, you first have to unzip the bug netting to get at the door, which lets in lots of bugs. Makes sense for mountaineering trips, where you don’t want blowing snow to collect between the mesh and the door, but for canoeing it is less than ideal. Having said that, most of those tents have lots of other venting options as well, so you may not often need to vent using the door…my two cents.
Hope all is well.
