Default Kayak for tall paddler

I am a beginner paddler. I am looking for a ww boat and am having a
real hard time fitting into one. I am 6'5" and 205lbs with size 12
feet. Could someone suggest a boat that may be good to try. Also if
someone not far from Calgary, Alberta has one for a reasonable price I
would be interested.

I have fit into a Pyrahna Burn L.

I do not fit in a Wavesport Godzilla, bigEZ, SuperEZ, Dagger GTX,
Dagger RPM.

My problem seems to be my leg length. My inseam is about 37" and I
think that my back to bottom of foot sitting length is about 49".

I have heard that Jackson boats have lots of room, and I have also been
told to check out the Mamba, Z, and Y. I would appreciate any info on
these boats or any other suggestions. It is a bad time of year here to
be trying to find a boat to fit in so I thank you for all your help.

Guy
