kayak for a fat guy - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I'd like to thank all of you that have given me your ideas on different boats. I am comfortable with my balance, but worried about getting back onto the boat if I do get flipped outside the bay. I will be taking Driftwood's advice on practicing when I get another boat this weekend. I'm looking at an older 12' Scupper Pro Dive model by Ocean Kayak. The specs say it'll carry 400 lbs and I don't mind getting wet. The reviews I've read by some other big guys have been favorable. Does anybody know if the Scupper Pro is the predecessor to the Prowler?
