If its too rough for a 24 bay then do you really want to go out? If its too rough for a 24 bay you need at least a 27 ft deep V or 24ft cat to want to fish that.

Again though, if you want something that takes chop better than a 24 bay than its not going to be a good inshore boat. There is no boat that is good offshore and enjoyable to cast for reds and trout. None.

Depends on what you consider inshore. If you are up in the marsh, then yes, I understand that point. But if you are say inside the islands of Southeast Louisiana, you are inshore, and can very comfortably speck fish out of center console offshore boats. Lots of charter companies use them. Then there are the aluminum boats that are just a little larger than bay boats that give you somewhat of a deck for "inshore" fishing, but can get you to that first set of rigs to drip a line for some snapper. I don't think anyone is trying to get a Marlin chaser and a flats boat in one.
