Pygmy's Arctic Tern

Has anybody built/paddles Pygmy's new Arctic Tern? I am debating the relative benefits/deficits of hard vs multichine boats and whether this would be a good boat for me. I know the hard chine is theoretically more stable...does that make it more difficult to perform a roll? Any feelings about this issue or about this particular boat? Thanks, Toni Lipton
