Keith, I don't know about paddling a triple, but I own a Necky Tesla NM, 


which is about 1 foot longer and 1 inch wider than the CD Storm. (length-17' 



10", width-25") I'm 5'11", 200 lbs., and the boat is very roomy for me, so it

would probably be quite comfortable for you. You may be able to pick up a 


used model for a reasonable price. Mike
