Question for Blackfly Option Owners

[waterbound]

Are any of you over the recommended weight? If so, how's that working out. I'm 225 and trying to decide between an Option and Octane 91.

I'm 230 dry and paddle an Option. Switched from an Octane because it felt too stable and let me paddle sloppily. Been happy with the Option since I got used to it. First few low water trips had me getting tossed when bumping rocks. Now that I've adjusted to the stability I really like it. A little wet at my weight but there is hardly any room for water once I'm in there anyway. For for Option it'll be interesting for a while
