There is literally thousands of coves, if you want to swim, that is where you would go. The Main channel is where the rough water is.
The lake is 100 miles long, over 1500 miles of frontage. Don't be scared by the video. That is the first 10 minutes of everyone leaving the shootout. Picture this 5000+ boats, all leaving at the same time with a storm coming in. That is when that was taped. Is not a problem anymore, yes it is rough, but they have spread everything out with the no wake zones during the Shootout specified hours.

The OLD after Shootout water. It is no longer this bad due to a 14 mile long no wake after the races.
Holiday weekends in the main channel from the 6-30mm are still close.
During the week, it is it fine for any 18 footer.

28 Pantera will do fine and will take whatever LOTO throws at it. It will still be a bumpy ride on big weekends from the 0 to 40mm though. I went from a Pantera single to my 32 AT. The AT rides a lot better, but its still a bumpy ride on most Summer Saturday afternoons.
