You're quite tall for your weight and if you're 20 years old you're probably not going to change but if you're younger then obviously recommending a boat that will fit you now, might not fit you in a year or two's time. Most people have a budget

Hahaha, nice one! If your feet are small, you'll fit in the small Nemesis. Otherwise you probably won't. I can squeeze into one with the seat in the middle but it hurts my feet to the max (like 20 seconds in the boat would be too much) but I'm 183cm and about 86kg. I paddled a medium quite happily. Medium might be a bit much unless you like a bigger boat. I'm sure someone will be more helpful than me with the other boats! Good luck :-)

Try before you buy.
