    Hey Jerry!

    There was a visual this morning of 28″ and since the sun is hiding, I would assume the level reading on the site is pretty accurate.  Get out there!!

    ckheaton replied to the topic Need loaner boat for spring clinic fits 245# person in the forum Gear Exchange 2 years, 9 months ago

    Likely will need the mans height to fit him properly?

    But any large creek boat should work, if he is very tall you need to ask for something like:

    Jackson mega rocker or a Pyranha Everest

    The STL team river runner club has some big boats – He wouldn’t happen to be a veteran?
