[QUOTE="juggernot, post: 309685, member: 10919"] I have a G3 1860 and the Searks are stiffer, thicker hulled ( better built IMO ), but a semiV jonboat is not made for rough water, even w the larger 20+ ones your gonna get wet and tossed around in big water/wind/waves. You must slow down alot and it's no fun at all while your in it poking along to get to sheltered water or back to the ramp. Even small chop 1-2' will beat my boat and shake/pound everything in the boat unless I slow to a crawl/semi off plane w the bow in the air. A true V hull would do much better IMO. [/QUOTE]
