I'm 6'2" 220lbs and bought this one after I returned a Pelican Blitz 100x which is not for a person my size even though it's rated for 275lbs. The Yellowfin 100 is rated for 375lbs. and I could feel the difference in stability and comfort right away. I have an $8K camera that I use to photograph water birds so I needed a stable boat but small enough to throw on my roof. It's only 10 feet so it does not track that well as expected but is good enough for paddling around smaller waters for doing photography. Tons of features and a lifetime warranty on the hull, also 1 year on parts. As for a few reviews about tipping over, losing fishing poles etc..., I bet those guys are just fat and clumsy, maybe drinking while boating? This kayak is stable as it gets at this size and paid $479 on sale was a steal.
