QD, since you boat in the same area I do, you know that it always gets snotty after 12-1pm. Even on good days. I have ventured out there (stellwagon) in my 21 WA a few times, but only on a well picked day, and get out early and back early. What we see around the outer islands after noontime is real nasty 20 miles out. Did a trip last year to the H-bouy, long 2 hour ride that suked, but we were not far off shore, but it beat the crap out of us.
Lately, mostly I like to stick around closer, its just not worth the fuel, banging and danger in a 20-21 ftr. Especially when I got my son with me.
To the B-bouy and several more miles out is fine for me, and usually we get all the fish we want.

So if your going, I don't have to tell you to be careful.
See you on the water.
