[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 139946, member: 55"] My opinion. Get a 12 ft. vee. Having been on the Intracoastal (Ocean Isle Beach - Sunset Beach N.C. in the summertime) in a 12 ft. vee with 4 horse 'Rude, I can honestly say that I would not want to be there in a flat bottom. The vee will handle the rough water and boat wakes much better than the flat bottom, and especially flying solo, the stability difference won't be very much at all. I would want a little more than the 4 horses I had, however. A 7.5 - 9.9 would probably be a better choice to cover water a little quicker. Although, coming from a kayak, you might not have a problem at all with the speed of a 4 horse. [/QUOTE]
