Hi Steve, take a look at the White River Lost Lake Open Front Float Tube @ $89.99. In the Q&A it says the weight limit is 325. Plus they also offer the replacement bladders in store if needed.

Here's a link:

Also the Buck's bag is about the same specs for twice the money:

Although I don't know where to get a Bucks bag 4 bills is quite a chunk of change for a tube.

Caddis has this also:

I hope this helps you get a good tube.

I just bought this tube last week. Fell in love with it. Though I may not be your size, im positive it'll suite you well. For me being 5'9 & 170lbs, I still have plenty of space to scoot around in the seat.

I plan on buying 2 more tomorrow for my cousin and brother >=)

If you buy a "cheaper" tube...(under $150 or so) you usually sit lower in the water. I have an Outcast and the water is right around my knees. The cheaper ones you will be about waist deep. Not a big deal in the summer, but if you fish for trout, you want to be as high above the water as you can.
