Questions about the little boats

[Sam_IL_WI]

Thanks for the reply and it's about what I expected to hear. For the most part most of the lakes/rivers closest to me would be served well with a little boat like those. There's a number of bigger lakes within an hour or so, that I don't think they would handle unless I stayed fairly close to shore.

As far as the stability of the boat, my concern was with it being so short. I'm picturing riding up to the crest of one wave and nose diving over the top into the trough between the waves. Then either flipping it, rolling it, or experiencing a ride similar to being on a bucking bronco.
