220 should be fine. It says 250lbs is the limit. A friend who weighed 250 used our kayak and managed fine.

Yes! I am 250+ and I fit just fine. It is a heavy duty kayak well suited for larger body sizes.

Agree with Gonzo, I was 250-270lbs when I took it out last summer. Only used it once (due to time constraints) for fishing in a calm, small river. Worked great for my purposes.

I'm going to buy another one ! It is too much fun to have by myself ! The kayak is stable and made of tough stuff , I'm 220 and six foot tall and I fit just fine.

My son, whom we bought this kayak for, weighed 227 at the time and had no problems with it.

we are very happy with this kayak - my wife uses it and I know she fits in it well and certainly has extra leg room so I will defer to the other larger people that say they fit with no problem

I would recommend the sevylor rio instead of the quickpack. It is better made and it is open like a canoe. It doesn't track in the water quite as well as the quickpack but for an inflatable it's a fun way to get away from the shoreline and get some exercise.

It will easily hold up to 300 lbs if properly inflated. Whether you will be able to comfortably stand up and paddle around is another story. I am over 280 and have trouble staying up and staying balanced, and my son is even taller and about as heavy, and has the same trouble. We have more fun using it as a kayak sitting on it and paddling around.

Don't think this particular canoe loader was designed for that much weight. My kayak is 85 lbs, and the bungee cord that holds it on probably is at it's limit. The problem isn't normal driving. Its emergency turns, panic stops stops. I put a ratchet strap at mid point in my pick up and another one on the roof rack.

I wouldn't chance it. I cannot attest to that as I am 150 and husband is 195. Also, this kayak is much better for a me, smaller framed person. I'm 5' 2" and it is the correct size for me, but my husband is 6' and cannot sit comfortably because he cannot straighten out his knees.

You'll be fine. I'm 230 and this thing doesn't even dip when I stand on it. Definitely the right board for you. Might want to look into a bigger paddle, but that's something else entirely. The paddle that comes with the board will definitely get you started.

"The E200s is recommended for ages 13 and older and offers a maximum weight capacity of 220 pounds". That is a quote from the above description.

I have 67lb Kayak and it's perfect. Supports are vee and may not work well on flat bottom. I think 130lbs would be ok.

The upright is very stout. I mount an 85 pound Hobie Outback kayak on one side and a SUP on the other. Upright height not a problem. Traveled many miles at highway speeds.

It's 28 inches at its widest point. Kayaks have no official capacity, but I've had 300 lbs in mine and it handled it just fine.

A little late. I'm 6'3" and was 260 when I first started out in this 8 months ago. I'm down to 240lbs, but I never did have an issue with this kayak concerning my height, size or weight. It's a fantastic deal.

It should hold the weight easily. I weigh 230 and often use the rig with a kayak on it as a seat. The secret will be adding another tie down to the rig to secure the first kayak. If not added even for a single kayak the kayak will tend to move around. Then I would secure the second kayak with either strong bungee cords or some other adjustable tie downs.

I have taken this boat on a small lake along with a bigger boat. it is hard to control its direction, fits one perfect 2 fit tight but doable holds up to 350lbs I believe, but I also have a challenger 2person inflatable kayak that work a lot better for what you are looking for and fishing

my kayak is 80lbs and it works very well. I do not know the weight capacity above that.

Like I said it handled 2 kayaks well. So 100lbs? Don't over tighten and I would recommend the taller ones for the jeep. I found myself wanting more room under.

It's all a matter of balance; with two people should work. Also would work best with a narrow kayak.

I would say 230 is probably best but it also depends on the width of your kayak. In most cases I would say 230 is best. 240cm might be good if your kayak is like 34+ inches wide. Yes it depends on what kind of kayaking you're doing too. If you're maneuvering white water, maybe shorter 220cm.
