I'm 6'-6", size 13.5--it's a bit tight in the foot area. As far as width and volume, you're probably not too heavy for it.
The Expedition Single has strong tracking---the Guillemot is more maneuverable. I'm building a Guillemot stretched to 18', with an additional inch of deck height for more footroom. I hope it will be a perfect compromise between the 17 and 19' boats.
