Boats 10 feet and under are better for smaller lakes, ponds, and moving water. They are easy to store and transport and generally are much lighter than big boats. If you paddling more than 3 miles go for the Featherlight 12. If you are paddling more than 8 to 12 miles, you might want a 14 footer for increased speed and tracking

A boats speed is propotional to its length. If you want a lightweight entry level stable boat for smaller lakes, ponds, slow rivers that is as easy to control as it is easy to load and unloand this is a great first boat!

If you want a kayak that's more than 9.5 feet, then yes, it's a problem. Look I'm a big guy and I use the 9.5 more than any other boat. They are great.
