True, if you HAVE TO regularly travel to an area such as the Broad side of Rattlesnake. If that is the case, then you would need a true rough water boat. But, for most cruising, the pontoons provide the smoothest ride, especially on busy weekends. They tend to slice through all the wakes and moderate chop and you get no pounding. If there is any significant wind, you will get spray though.
Bottom line....there is no perfect boat for all conditions or situations. That's why I have more than one
. But that's true of most islanders.
