: Capsizing will not be a big problem. Done it before and I do practice re
: entries. The Cape Ann HV is what I am opting for at this moment. A size 13
: foot has a sway factor. 270 lbs. And 55 yrs. old.

Btw, you can always change the deck shape to give yourself the room to actually fit into the boat. The deck's shape doesn't change the all important under water shape so won't change the performance.
