If anyone out there has built the Outer Island kayak designed by Jason Babina, I would be very interested in hearing your thoughts on this boats performance charcteristics.

I'm not sure if I will fit in this kayak (I'm 6'6", weigh 190Lbs/95kg and have shoe size 12,5).

I would also like to know your opinion on any changes you might recommend making if you were to build it again.

I'm also considering the Guillemot Expedition Single and the Razor Billed Auk. Opinions are welcome. What are the main differences ?
