Hobie Revo / Extra Long Legs

So I've been narrowing down my choices of kayak and currently at the forefront is the Hobie Revo - I've heard great things. I haven't had a chance to try one out, but in the meantime, I'm curious to hear from owners or those who've tested them if they think a Revo will accommodate the super long legs of someone who's 6'4" - almost 6'5". Even for someone who's as tall as I am, my legs are particularly long - they make up a lot of my height.

Thoughts? I know the pedals are adjustable, but even then, I have a feeling I'm going to be just a little too cramped. Not that worried, actually, because if worst comes to worst, I'll probably just end up with a Prowler or a Tarpon. Poor me. ; )

Comments much appreciated! Thanks.

I'm about 5' 10" and ride a REVO.  There's lots of room beyond my feet with my legs stretched all the way out.  I have the pedals set at 5 and there's a lot more room for shortening them for someone with longer legs.  You can demo a Revo at lake Del Valle any time.  I wouldn't by any yak without first demoing it.  I learned that the hard way.  The Revo is my second yak and could have been the first if I had only demo'd it.

i am 6'1" with a 34" in seam and i have one more spot on my peddles on my revo and i love it greatest fishing kayak of all time imo. check out sunrise in livermore they demo all the boats too. james

Hi BassStalker,
I'm interested in what you find out. I'm 6'5" 36" inseam, and I'm trying to decide between a Trident 13 and a Hobie Outback or Revo. I'm leaning towards the Hobie's because I want to use it flyfishing for trout as well as fishing the local kelp/reefs around Santa Cruz.
I'm going to try and demo the Hobies soon.
Good Luck, Jim

I go 6'6" and I know what you mean about feeling a little cramped on the Revo. It's not that it wouldn't work but a little more room is nice. The Adventure really is the way to go. It gives you plenty of legroom for the taller pedaler and it plain hauls ass.

I am 6'4".  I have peddled a revo, and the oasis (tandem), and the adventure.  I now own the adventure.  Plenty of leg room for a 6'4" peddler.  I use the setting 6 most commonly and have tried the longest setting (7).  Setting seven feels almost too long, but its great to have a slightly different setting on long days, uses slightly different muscles and pressure points in the yak. 

By comparison the tandem will absolutely wipe out your knees by the end of a 6 hr session on the water, its painful, for us taller people there simply in not enough room. 

yep got a revo and I am 6'4" with a 36 inch in seam. I have the peddles on 6 (there is one notch longer). Never really felt cramped. And I have put 9+ miles in a single day. Its kinda like a bike. You don't want to FULLY extend. I also have a T13 and have no issues with leg room on that ride as well. I can't speak to the outback never peddled one.
