hey im looking to get myself a playboat.

ive been looking at a Dagger ID 6.9 or a bliss-stick RAD 185
im fairly new to kayaking but getting into it in a big way

can someone advise me on which i should go for
my weight is 11.5 stone (161lbs) the ID's max paddlers weight is 175lbs and the bliss stick's minimum is 145lbs
would it be better to be close to the max weight or minimum weight?

also if anyone is selling a playboat or has seen an ad for one which you feel would suit me better by all means let me know!
it would have to be around the 300 euro mark though!

thanks for the advice in advance
