Also I rarely pilot from the bridge which would exaggerate any rocking.
There is a person on youtube that has several videos that he has shot while underway that might be worth watching. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCj...FmqEyQnMryOcTg
Good luck on your search and if possible try to find coverage moorage.

Hi NWSeadog,
Thanks for the reply. I’ve seen his videos and really like the maintenance videos on the Lehman. I was wondering in some of the videos if it was a little on the beam. Yer right, you’d be in for a ride on the flybridge. I’ve motored with a friend on his 30’ Catalina on a beam sea off San Diego - everyone was very pale and very quiet. Glad it was a fairly short run.. Right now, I’d prefer that than the 110 degrees in Phoenix. Cheers!
