Been in some good seas, but don't recall the water actually coming over the bow in my V20. Hope to keep it that way. Yes, 45 degrees at the right speed (slow) and hold on.
The largest "waves" I experienced in the V20 were probably close to 8-10 ft, but they were ocean swells. Many other boats out there, but I didn't care for it. Lesson learned: just cause other boats are out there doesn't mean its OK for me.
Been through that channel where MJ had his incident, there's a few areas where the riptides can get hairy. I will find alternate routes when it looks bad. The 20 ft boat can seem awfully small sometimes...
