: I think your weight is fine for the Coho.
I have had a Coho for 5 years now and do not have a skeg nor rudder. I love the boat. I get much better performance from it in following/quartering seas when it is loaded for a camping trip. I weigh 230 lbs. When I paddle it empty it can get pushed around a bit as it is so light.
