Re: WHAT KIND OF CONDITIONS ARE SAFE FOR A 20 CC?
I live in Hawaii and 4-6 ft seas with 10-15 knots wind is average on our side.
Been out in seas 8-10 ft and been comfortable with it.
Will not hesitate to turn back if I feel uncomfortable with the sea conditions.
Have ridden other boats and really appreciate the SeaCraft hull design in rough seas.
As a side note,I have had the "we,re gonna need a bigger boat" moment once in my career.
THAT was when we had a Pacific Blue Marlin alongside my 20
SeaCraft and the Marlin was three-quarters the length of the boat.
The Marlin weighed 1,190 pounds,was 14 ft.long,and had an 8 ft. girth.
I DON`T reccomend going after such a fish on a 20 ft.Seacraft but it was a once in lifetime catch and IS possible on a small boat!
