I was sailing today in Charleston, SC. Wind in the morning was around 20, waves about 5-8 feet. It was pretty rough and I have to say the Wave performed like a champ. The front kept getting buried in the waves, no pitchpole. From my days on a H16, I know it would have pitchpoled under similar conditions. When launching through the surf, I had a bunch of speed up and got hit by a wave, it buried the bows and brought the boat to stop so quick, I slid from the back of the tramp and almost went off the front. Anyway, the boat is durable and handles great in rough conditions. Thanks.
