Seeking: Information on Cape Ann Storm LT

Anybody out there every build and paddle a Cape Ann Storm LT or a Storm? I am looking for my second kayak - currently have an Osprey Pygmy 13. Love it, but looking for a little larger boat. Small paddler (5'3", 100lbs). Pygmy Arctic Tern 14 is in the running, but am also very attracted to the Storm LT. Was wondering how it handles in rougher waters, esp. in a following sea. My Pygmy is great on most counts. But...when we are surfing - she broaches VERY easily on waves, due to the reduced waterline length and flat bow (punches through rather than over waves). Any information or assistance you can give would be great to help me make the decision!!
