I go out there all the time in my 21' WA.
I feel safe, but I ALWAYS pick the day.
If its bad, I just go to work !! They love me here.....
Got a full vinyl enclosure if its snotty.
Self draining cockpit/deck, good bow.
Nice reliable 175 gets me home in a hurry if needed.
But....
No tuna joy this year though, and I'm not going out there again.
