Balance of Turning and Tracking

I'm looking to build a strip-built kayak this winter for my wife. She is 5' 2". She really likes the way my Pygmy Arctic Tern performs and would like a strip kayak that tracks as straight and turns as easily as the Arctic Tern. If anyone knows of one that performs as well the Arctic Tern in these categories, I'd like to have her try it out. Any Ideas?
