Unless you want a barge you will be WAY too small for the storm. I can't
comment on the Squall. I am 5'11" 205# and it was a tank for me. I was
looking to move up from my Rec boat but this felt like a bigger rec boat to
me. Too much initial stability, poor response to leans, mushy footpegs
(rudder). I ended up with a Tempest 170 which is SO MUCH better of a boat
for me it isn't funny.
Your experience may differ, Try it but make sure you try others also.

I'm curious what people think of the Squall or Storm from Current Designs.
I'm looking for a new sea kayak which will be used mainly in the Great
Lakes
area as well as on other large local lakes and rivers (Wisconsin, Illinois
mainly). It may occasionally make a trip to the ocean, financese
permitting.

I'm 5'11" 175 pounds, so I'm leaning a bit more towards the Squall, but it
all depends on fit.
