If you are looking for a "recreational style" s&g kayak that's in the neighborhood of 14 ft long with a large cockpit, take a look at the Mill Creek 13 by CLC (Chesapeake Light Craft). It's exactly what you are looking for.

Kurt Maurer built a couple. Do a search through this forum for a link to his "Pair o' Mill Creeks Project" web page. It's a good read.

Don't rule out other kayak styles just because you are used to a recreational style plastic boat. There are lots of good kayaks out there.
