Hi Bill,
The Sea Bee was at the top of my list based on it's short length. But, will a guy like me fit (6'2", size 11.5 feet, 205 lbs)? I did some measurements while sitting with my back to a wall and it looks like my legs will fit before hitting the station in front of my feet with a couple of inches to spare.

Cheers,
Bryan
