I did sea trial it but it wasnt on a sloppy day. I know they drift hard, but in a head sea they are a wagon. Whats been your experience Bry? Also what are you guys running? A blackwatch?

Valhalla is a Blackfin, and I know from talking to folks at night on the edge they were snapping while we were drifting comfortably. Through a steep chop, the Carolina hull probably wins out
