I've been reading the paddle float vs. roll discussion with great interest. Mainly because I'm at the point I want to learn how to roll. But as I sat here reading these posts I started to think about my "other" kayak - A Necky Gannet I bought for the kids. This is a very wide recreational kayak with a cockpit so big and a beam so wide I doubt very seriously I would ever be able to roll it. A couple of inferences to the klepper being a beast to roll has me thinking: In the roll vs paddle float debate, shouldn't the "type" of kayak also be a (prime) consideration? Or is the width (or any other dimension) not a factor is rolling?
