This is not going to be a problem for coastal cruising in reasonable weather conditions.

A huge percentage, I'll say most by far recreational power boats operating in coastal areas have swim steps. Allot of these boats have their skiff on the swim step.

Yes, some waves go over the swim step. Most go underneath, lifting the aft of the boat with them.
