I have an aluminum deep vee offshore boat. Any specific questions ask away

to answer some above, it is not hot in the water, it does ride light, and it is indestructible

Its mainily about the bay boats 22-24'. I had a 24' fiberglass and it handled chop fine if i wanted to run a couple miles offshore. I was just curious on the ride. Like the guy said above, any boat will beat you to death. I guess its all in preference to each person. 90% of my time is spent inshore but just have to watch your seas when you wana run out just like w any other boat. I know you can basically run over anything and they will last forever, I guess thats what caught my interest. Pros and cons I guess. Durability/lightweight/fuel costs vs smooth ride
