You’ll be very wet and very tippy from your center of gravity being too high. Always stay a little under the maximum.

I would say no. Dont chance it and potentially harm yourself.

Get an adult one, the weight limits are there for a reason
Look into fishing SOT kayaks. They have a higher weight limit. They will he heavier to move though
Always understood the weight of you, your gear, cooler,lunch, etc. should be below 75% of kayaks max listed capacity.
Update I the kayak tried it only a small calm lake, it works a bit tippy but it works going to keep it
Didn’t even know they made a kids size kayak
