Hi Destroyerman,

When I was on the USCG Tamoroa, a 210 foot "sea tug", I do remember sea's that caused the bow to go under water. Pretty cool to watch from the flying bridge (I was just a seaman on watch) Yea, if there was anyone on deck, being wet would be the least of their problems...

I still stand by my comments. My experience is that the V20's send so much water up and away that the water too easily catches the wind and sprays right back at you. Perhaps I just catch this wind\wave combination more than others.
