What would make a V ..." better " ?

On another note.
Have any of you taking a ride in a larger RIB? We have a 15' HIB rib that has a Hunt hull and it's amazing how much rough water the little 15' rib will cut through. I can only imagine what a 30 footer would handle like.

I think bs is referring to the 19' al boat in the second article. Wish they had shown a better picture of it.

I guess we all have different ideas of wave measurement. Here on The gulf coast, our waves are primarily wind driven. When its 2-3 here, it's miserable. I cant imagine going out in a 20 ft boat in 3-5. The only time we get a nice smooth ground swell in during a hurricane.
