Not sure how huge the waves are you all are talking about but my 16ft tri hull bass boat handles excellent in chop.The boat handles alot better it chop then I expected it to. Ill hit 2 ft waves at full speed no problem and just back it down on anything bigger than that. I rarely have any water come into my boat and if I do thats what the bilge is for.

Come out and play on Lake of the Woods in 25MPH winds one time and then tell me how it handles and how dry you stay

Don't get me wrong I'm not trying to saying my bass boat handles like a deep vee in rough water, but what I am saying is that i highly doubt you're going to get into water too rough for a 20ft bass boat. Many may prefer fishing out of a deep vee for comfort, but I know triton tests thier bass boats in the gulf of mexico and if they are able to stand up in the abuse of the ocean they can handle just about anything muskie fishing throws at them.
