I just paddled a friends Large Fluid FLirt, I am 190# and it was PLENTY big for my size, I'm also 6'2". I was very stable and would be a forgiving river running boat as well at thet weight. A little harder to throw around at that weight as well, but would surf waves well. If not interested in a 'playboat',. look at something longer, they will usually have more volume. Old pyrahna Inazone or I3 make good river runner or boats like the Liquid Logic Hoss would be bigger yet.
Hope this helps.

I have an I3 223 and like it and I have a draggorossi stinger which I'm either going to convert or sell but it should be a good boat- the s8-235 is also a good choice I guess a key factor is are you looking for.... just river running you can pick up an Atom for the same price

THANKS FOR THE FEEDBACK, ALREADY GOT THE ATOM AS MY RIVER RUNNER/SLALOM BOAT. LOOKING FOR A BOAT WITH EMPHASIS ON PLAY, BUT W/ DECENT DOWNRIVER CAPABILITIES. HH
