I realize that I am picking up this thread rather late in the discussion, but 
I will share my experience anyway and hope it will be useful to some.

I am 6'5" 215# and size 13 shoe. I had gone to several shows, tried a number 
of boats and finally settled on a Current Design Extreme, High Volume. The 
only modification was to extend the rudder pedals about 1 1/2" by replacing 
the cables. It is a snug but comfortable fit. The boat has ample leg and foot 
room and rides nicely in the water. It is as close as I expect to come to the 
ideal craft.

Hope this helps somewhat.
