You might also want to check out the Current Designs Expedition, it has a bit more volume than the Extreme but I think it's only 22" wide.
The Kayaksport Viviane is somewhere between the Extreme and Expedition for volume. You might want to check that one out too.

I have tried sitting in the Vivian. I can fit in but my thighs were tight. The owner of the shop in Beulah said that they made different seats for the Vivian so that I might find it more comfortable with a different seat. I will probably try that out again this fall, when our kayak club take its annual trip to the Platte River to kayak with the Salmon.

Have you considered taking the seat out and making a custom foam seat? I know several people who have done it and they all prefer the homemade foam seat to the factorty seats in their boats. The seat would lower your center of gravity, so the boat would be more stable, and it would fit you perfectly since you would carve it out yourself.
