I wonder if I'm to big at 6'1", 235lbs for the Manitou at 12'10"x25"...

I will be trying it on the store for size but not on water. And I'm
kind of set on this kayak because of the seat. High back and won't
absorb water (or pee)...

Necky doesn't provide weight capacity so I'm left in the dark.


I'm 5'11" and tip the scales at almost 200 lbs. The Manitou is a
perfect fit for me. I paddle a low volume, tranquil river, hardly
class II in the roughest stretches. I enjoy the hell out of it.

You might go to the buyer's guide section in paddling.net and check
the weight limits for kayaks of similar dimension.
