Where are you located? I have a tarpon 160 I'll let you test paddle. I love my tarpon. Thing is so fast. If your looking for used there is usually a pretty good selection of tarpons around. I'm 6'2 and weigh about the same and it works great. A lot of people will say it's unstable, it is thin and takes some getting used to, but the secondary stability is awesome. I do some decently long trips and have gone out in swell I shouldn't have and the tarpon handled it no problem.
