I am 6'2" and paddle a 28" wide kayak. It is 1" narrower than your kayak. I am a high angle paddler most of the time. I started out with a 240 and have been stepping it down over the last couple of years. I now use a 220 high angle paddle and it seems to be the correct length based on paddle entry to the water and the shaft not being buried under the water. There is no need to try to paddle with the shaft under the water. All that needs to be in the water is the actual blade itself. I use a full carbon paddle, but a good glass paddle would work well for you. Look at the Adventure Technology Oracle Glass too. My other favorite paddles are the Werner line. I would have Werner if not using the AT now. http://www.atpaddles.com/us/products/oracle-glass If you want to hook up sometime I can bring paddles from 210-245 in full carbon for you to try out the different lengths. I know carbon is out of the price range, but the length tryout would be good.
It's a trap! I tried a Werner from one of the shops .... then had to buy it!!!! Cuz it was 1000X better then my $45 paddle.

high or low angle paddler?  I'm a High angle, so use the Werner Tybee, which is a great padle.  Broke my previous Aquabound pushing off some jetties.  The Skagit is good for low angle paddlers.
