Over here out inlets are nothing at all like that. Every inlet here might have a strong current but that is all. There is no massive waves, no crazy confused water, none of that. It is usually rather smooth at all times but just has a ripping current.

I do have to say I like the older DONZI/Fountain OB sport fish type boats (ZSF and LE), those are pretty nice.
I love love love the 31 Fountains when slightly redone with some modern takes on them.

just like any open bow type of boat in an inlet...

is being 15 on the boat the only plus to these boats? if so, i never feel like being too many on mine might as well keep my old rig !
A lot of CC's are self bailing too. They can tolerate a lot more water coming in the boat than a go fast boat,

I’ll admit they,re windy. Chilling behind the windshield on the formula is sooo nice, but it doesn’t ride as nice as my CC.

No other major drawbacks
