MillCreek 13, Big and tall

Wow - long thread going here!  I guess I will jump in.  I’m 6 foot 7 and 195 pounds and have the Mill Creek 13.  I will often put one of my three kids in front of me in the boat bringing the weight to where you are at but evenly distrubuting it.  I love the boat.  I would however think hard about spending time building something that isn’t just right for you - it is a lot of work and having them match doesn’t mean anything.  There is good reason CLC has some many options because people want and desire many different things for different reasons.  I’d read about some others and think about what is best for you personally.
