Default V boats - rough water handling

Interested in feedback from guys who have ocean fished, and had to run seas - 3' -5' chop, and bigger swells.

Knowing these boats weren't really meant for offshore work, I have run in 3' - 4' white cap chop on the ocean and at about 4' was getting a few splashing over the bow a bit. I know it's a wet ride from spray, and I use the tabs just a touch to avoid excessive plowing into waves.

Who has some detailed experiences to share - plus ride comparison to other boats if you've had others in same size category.

Thanks
