    To be honest I've not liked the ride in any of the pontoons I've been on. Mate has a Mclay we have had in some monster seas in the Foveaux and very impressed with how it handled it (after I managed to pry my hands off the grab handles once back in Bluff) but dont have the budget to go that route, I'm not going to go into the strait in anything less than a perfect forecast in any case as I'm not a super confident skipper yet. Probably do a bit of diving etc around fiordland also and messing about on the lakes
    I've had 2 McLay and compared to the pontoon boats they are back breakers and come down real hard.
