How does the G3 handle the rough water?

 

I do not have your boat, but I have  had the Pro 175 with a 60 hp Yammie 2-stroke for 20 years on the Tidal Potomac and even though I am a weather watcher before launch, I have come out of a calm tributary on occasion and had to navigate 3 miles back across the river to the state park launch with 3 ft breakers.  You become an expert at quartering the breakers at a very slow speed and depending  on if you are quartering waves on the port, or starboard you will get very wet. The Potomac is mostly 5-6 deep outside  the 20-39ft deep shipping channel, so there are no rollers, just nasty chop, one right after the other, but if you do it right, you will make it safely.  It is a rare occasion when it happens, but we are close to (30 miles) the Atlantic in my section of the river.  On those days I wished I had purchased a V-hull.  At 10mph the river white caps and at 20mph you are in trouble, but I love the river and respect it.

I have an Eagle 175, but my lakes are small so I don’t experience rough water. The worst I’ve been in was a windy day, on a holiday weekend, with all the boat traffic it got pretty “rough” for our area. I decided to see how she handled. It cut through the boat wakes, and waves pretty good and we stayed dry. 
 

I’m sure if this helps at all. I do know one thing, I sure wouldn’t take it out on the Great Lakes.
