I think that there only being one really sloped wall isn't bad - good place to put gear. I have a 2p Eureka Mountain Pass, a 4p El Capitan, and an old still-in-the-box [N!ergy 9](https://www.rei.com/product/798442/eureka-nergy-9-tent) with a power pack that was gifted to me and I haven't opened yet!
For 2 seasons and then it leaks like a seive I'm gonna go Eureka El Capitan, outfitter series, never failed me yet, been immersed in a puddle
I'd just put a tarp overhead. Alternatively, I've been in ridiculous thunderstorms for days in my Eureka El Capitan and my MSR Habiscape and never a drop inside.
Eureka El Capitan is a great tried and true canoe camping tent. It’s packs nice and small although it’s a bit tight to get into the bag. For 3 people you’d want the “4man” size.
I’ve got two Eureka’s (2 and 4 person). The two is from 1995. No issues with either
I didn’t know tents still came with fibreglass poles, I haven’t had one with them since the 80s. The three I’ve bought since then (North Face, MEC, Eureka) have all been aluminum. You could probably just replace the poles of your current tent if you like the tent enough.
