Got a pimped up Tarpon 120 Angler, had it for about 5 years, love it.
Use it almost weekly, a little less in the spring/fall, but in the summer almost daily.
Not serious fishing, but the relaxing kind. Also make little trips on it, nights on empty islands etc.
Loads of stuff fits and still quite ok to paddle.
For a bloke a bigger size, with even more space, is not a bad idea.
