You will swim in the project 62, I am 6' 200 with size 13 feet and I swim in it its a big boat. Someone mentioned that by trimming the foam by the feet they were able to fit a 6'5 guy in the Agent 6.2.

I doubt you'll fit in the all star, look at the superstar.

You will fit into an All star. I know two guys personally that are both 6,2 and fit tight, but just fine in the All Star. THey are both 185 lbs. At 150, you will be right in the correct weight range.

Demo one first, but you should be just fine and have ample foot and knee room. Albeit, a bit back in the seat.

Logan,

You just need to pack a lunch. You know a couple pizzas a day, a little ice cream at night. I should have some Ronins to try in a couple of weeks. So if you come up to Shoshone PM me and I will bring you a boat down.

Is Denny still planning on doing some wildwater stuff up this way next week?
