Hi Tim and all, Tim asked, "Have you ever tried to roll a double Klepper? I've never seen a Klepper double, so maybe this is a stupid question, but why is it un-rollable?" The one time I had the pleasure of paddling a Klepper double was very brief. It was a very old model (something like 30 to 40 years old). That model has a big open cockpit. I tried to roll it, but couldn't because I couldn't get the paddle anywhere near the surface of the water. The cockpit rim is very high from the water. Setting up before capsizing should have told me that it was a futile effort to begin with. Can anyone on this list roll a double Klepper? I certainly be interested in hearing how.
