So any "Big" guys fishing a Revo or should look for a wider kayak?

Any thoughts much appreciated.

I love my revo I am 6'3" 220 and I have a 13'
This is it rigged up and wouldn't trade it for any other kayak. More than stable and plenty big for me. Upgrade to a high back seat and the turbo fins first and you won't regret buying that boat.
