question need feedback on creekboat for small female paddler with short torso and arms... New

From: kayaksiren

5'3", 115 lbs., short torso and short arms
currently I creek in a very very rigged Stubby.  I love it but it is falling apart.
main issue for me seems to be low side walls so that I can curl around the boat and get my arms out of the water for a good roll.  If I can roll it solidly the rest will follow.
thanks for any advice you may have
Laura
