His butt will be in the water but arms and shoulders will be above the water. We love it.

You will both sit in the water but your arms and head will be above the water.

Our two floats have been used by adults weighing +/- 120lbs up to 180 +/- lbs...all sit comfortably IN the water (not too high) although the heavier you are the deeper you sit. I would think a 210pounder would still be satisfied , ie. IN the water not under the water). Hope this helps. We've been very satisfied....great for sitting in the water with a group of friends and talking etc...

You will most likely have your shoulders and above out of the water and so will your husband. We both use the float and we love it. It is really comfortable but some of your body will be out of the water.

I'm 5'11" and about 140 lbs and it keeps my shoulders well above the water. Your husband will probably sit further down in the water. Great product! Hope this helps.

Lower half is in. Upper half is out. Best float I've ever owned. Very comfortable and durable.

I weigh about 220lbs and I go water skiing with it. Many crashes and it keeps me afloat just fine without any swimming effort. I can just sit there in the water if I want. Hope that helps.

Hello Well, my husband and I both squeezed onto the float together for a picture. We were a bit wide for the float, but it worked. And it held our combined 420 lbs. with no problem. Very seaworthy. Just an FYI:when on the float, you sit very much above the water. No part of me gets wet unless I splash myself or get splashed. I'm 5'9" and it's plenty long. Hope this helps.

I weigh 120 and did fine. I don't know what the term 'floaty' refers to, but I found that I was able to steer well, found the board to be very stable, and I had fun! You can easily contact the manufacturer, who is very into customer service. I did just that and was assured that the board was ok for my small stature. Good luck!

At 120 you should be ok. But you if like to ride on your knees or whats called drop knee ( thats front leg up back leg knee) a stiffer board is preferred. I suggest the mach 7-7 for this stance. Im am 230 and this board does not bend at all. Hope this helped. Board on!

I would say no as my husband sits on the chair without any problems and he is probably 180 pounds.

Yes, I would not go above that. In fact I would stay below it. I'm 230 lbs and feel quite secure but I think if I were well over 300 I might get nervous. That said I have owned and used this table for over a year with 0 problems or complaints. I use it personally (every week) as opposed to professionally (every day).

I weigh about 130 but my husband must be 180 and he said it was fine for him ,too. I think it is Rated for 250 pounds.

I'm 130 pounds and sit on mine every day. My husband is 220 pounds and they accommodate him just fine too.

I would suspect you would be fine. I am 6', and can hang my feet and roughly a third my shins in the water, while floating. The seat is not that high, especially if you slightly under-inflate the bladders (or don't top them off when cooler water causes some loss of pressure).

You'll be fine. I'm 230 and this thing doesn't even dip when I stand on it. Definitely the right board for you. Might want to look into a bigger paddle, but that's something else entirely. The paddle that comes with the board will definitely get you started.

Definitely! I have sat on the front while my husband paddled and we did fine on a lake. I'm 5'3/110 - he just had to be more cautious when paddling

I'm 225 and it floats me pretty good. It is not as stable as a fixed board but it is pretty stable. I've had a friend that was about 250 use it and he thought it didn't float him very well.

It is a little tricky, I weigh 165# and rode it just prove I could to my 125# daughter who said that couldn't, how ever my 180 # son sunk 1st one end and then the other to every ones amusement but his. I have never ridden a larger SUP, but at 165# I think I'll be able to paddle it all I want to., hope this helps. Lewis Kennedy

My family and I really enjoy using it very much, but it is more for light recreational use vs. performance sport use. It definitely performs better for smaller people - bigger people can use it, but they sit lower in the water which impacts speed and manueverability, and they have a higher centers of gravity which impacts stability. I think it might be a combination of height and weight. I think the 140 lb (maybe 150 lb) weight limit is pretty accurate. As far a height, I think 5' 6" might be close to the limit thinking about leg length to fit in the foot holders.

I am 47, 5'2, and 120 lbs and I love mine and think its perfect for me. I am also moderately fit and think this would be ideal for you! Good Luck!

My husband is about 260 pounds and he sits in it for meals as it is so hard for him to stand if he is sitting low. He was a nice 160 lbs for years. but he had knee and hip replacements and sits too much now. He is a 2xl in britches. Hope this helps.
