i"m 6'5...kinda on the larger side. I have 10 lbs to lose but even then i'm running like 220...I live on the detroit river and love going out but would like to take a more active roll in my water fun, yet most boats...well i don't seem to fit in them. My legs hit the end, i'm too big, generally i don't fit. I'm looking to play in the water more and don't want to be flipped by the freighters and i'd like not to sink any suggestions for great...larger kayaks??

This is a little late for an answer, but check out the Wavewalk W500 that is a new concept based on a co-jointed dual-hull system. It also has a generously sizeable cockpit and its REALLY STABLE. The specs put the max. loading at 360 lbs. Check this : http://www.wavewalk.com/W_Fishing_Kayak_Product_Information.html Retails at $996 and upwards for variants of the model.
