My subjective numbers were with an outfitted CLC 17.  It's much easier
to control with a good seat, hip pads, and knee pads, but it's still not
a highly maneuverable boat (in any axis).

I'm really surprised you can roll it at all, especially without the knee
pads--when I first tried rolling mine sans pads, my knees kept sliding
around.
