Welcome! I agree that you might want more boat. I have a Tarpon and also freedive with it from time to time instead of using my Hobie. It gets the job done but I'm always a tad jealous of just how much more stable my buddies X-factor is and how much more storage capabilities he has. I can tell you if price is a concern too you're better off finding a Malibu or Ocean Kayak already rigged cheaper and more readily available than a Tarpon. With your height and weight you'll be able to exit and re-enter a wider yak easier as well. Of course that's only my 2 cents, whatever gets you out there safely is all it takes until you figure out exactly what you want.
