Another option for a good paddling kayak is the Wilderness Systems Tarpon. Both the 140 and 160 meet your requirements.

I have a nice trident 15 for sale. The tridents are nice and fast due to being so long i belive 15 feet 11 inches is what mine measures (idk why they didnt just call it a 16 lol) they are narrow but still have stability. Also has the rodpod which is nice for landings for your poles and the sonar shield seems to keep the fishfinder dry in wet surf launches.

Get an adventure and just don't plug in the mirage drive.

Tarpon 160 is pretty fast. Just keep in mind with speed comes a lost of stability.

A x factor would be perfect for your size, stability is great but u sacrifice speed. Well worth it if your not in a hurry
