Hi,
went on a boat ride on our lake with my Son and my wife. It was a little windy on the way out but after an hour on the lake it got really windy and the lake got rough with white caps making the journey home very rough.
I exchanged my Zodiac Zoom SIB for a Titan RIB this year. The difference in dealing with the white caps was amazing. The RIB handled the rougher water much better than the Zodiac especially when the floor would bounce up and down and the whole things would slam hard against the water. The ride was way drier and also I was able to go faster without it being totally uncomfortable.
We got home at a slower pace but nobody felt that we were in any danger and the ride was a lot more comfortable than the Zodiac.
If you have the space it is well worth considering a RIB. In our application it seems to be a more substantial boat.
