    Is boating in the Gulf as rough as the ocean?

    I've driven a Donzi. It was super fun and turning was a breeze compared to a cat.

    I'm impressed you can feel the handling difference between a cat and V, that's a compliment! Have you been able to drive a twin engine cat? Kinda cool to cut throttle on inside engine and bury trim in a turn.

    Well to be accurate, the Gulf is an ocean, but no, it's not as rough as the Atlantic which is on the East Coast of Florida, the Intercoastal Waterway (ICW) is the nicest, it's a system of channels that run between the mainland and the barrier islands, most of the time the ICW is like a Lake, it just has dolphins and blue/green water, come try it. you'll love it.
