You will have no problem in a marsh rat magnum. My Dad is 6'4" and weights 300 lbs and he does just fine. Nothing beats a rat.

aquapod paddle a lot easier and will float more weight.  I am 350 my buddy 250.  we sink a magnum rat.  we do not sink a 10' pod. :twocents:

did I mention they paddle a lot easier?  David Boys jr told me to buy the aquapod.  He is a stand up guy as was his late father.  His father lived about 5 min from me.

I have one of the original fiberglass marshrats that I bought from the late Dave Boys himself.  It's camo and has a transom for a small motor.  I use a Merc 3.3hp or electric on it.  I used to duck hunt a lot and now have 5 little girls and no time to hunt.  It's heavy, but very wide and stable.  I've been on some seriously dangerous water in it, like when the wind whips up during a hunt and had to retreive decoys and call it a day.  I live in Olympia, mine is available for anyone who would like to try one out before they make a purchase.  I don't really want to sell mine, so I'd have to pretend I'm a pawn shop and request something of similar value in trade while you try it out.  Also have motors, decoys, seats, etc if you need gear too.
