    Just get a tandem and use it as a single. They have a 500 pound true capacity and are way cheaper then a single designed for a big man. The plus is you can put the two seats on it and the wife and kids can have a blast.

    I have a crescent tandem and I can vouch for its weight capacity. Like Barrel said it is your best choice

    test the pro angler, and the tandem.. I love my pro angler, but i guess it is a preference thing. but the mirage drive is just awesome, once you use it you never go back

    Check out a NuCanoe. I have the 12ft original (525lb capacity). I know Clawhammer has the NuCanoe Frontier (600lb capacity). There is a local dealer where you can test paddle. Shoot me an email if you want the info.

    Tarpon Fishing Kayaks Single Seat units Are Rated To 375lbs and would handle better than a duo. Good Luck and Tight Lines.
