Idling into some 3 to 4' waves will put an occasional wave over the bow of my V. It is the interval that is a killer. 30' swells at 60 second intervals is doable in a jon boat.

When I took my V21 out to the Flemish Cap, seas were about 10' long period swell with a 3-5' chop on top.....very fishable, especially since loaded down with 200 extra gallons of fuel.

The biggest problem was getting a 500lb swordfish situated onboard without getting harpooned.
