Curious to know about paddlers experience with QCC kayaks, particularly the 
600 model. Someone told me due to the seat positioning, it would be difficult 
to lean back for rolls. Anyone out there have first hand experience?

Regarding rolling the QCC 600--though it is difficult to lay back on deck due 
to the depth of the cockpit, the QCC 600 is quite rollable.  While I do own a 
Romany 16, and can lay back on the rear deck, I don't when rolling.  I've 
used the QCC 600 in a lot of classes I've taught, and have paddled it for 
pleasure too, and I have never had a problem rolling it.

Hopefully you can find one near you to test for yourself.  If you are near 
Milwaukee Wisconsin I'd be glad to meet up with you so you could try it for 
yourself.
