Big Hobie Peddlers

Not ready to give up the paddle quite yet
but the tingling in my hands after 14 hours of paddling
has me thinking about it again...

My question for big guys:
or for those that know:

I am 6-4 240lbs with long legs...
Are there many Hobie guys out there this size?
I have tried them all, but it has been awhile
the outback seemed like a barge and even when I had the peddles adjusted for the longest legs and it still seemed short to me...

The revo seems nice and more of "real" kayak
I think the adventure may be my only real choice
(the pro angler is out of the question)

so any help?
I am familiar with all the advantages / disadvantages
Just looking to see how many big guys are really peddling
and how comfortable they are...

What say the peddlers?? (or the kayak shop guys in the know)
Thanks
Don
