I am bigger than 250 and feel a Pungo floated me adequately. (I ended up with an America by Perception because it was in stock, rigged to fish and I was ready to buy right then.) There are several boats in the same class as the Pungo. Go to a store if you can and at least sit in as many as you can to compare. Remember there is at least one sponser (where is the spell check key???) of FAOL that sells kayaks so go there and check them out also.
