The more you fish in one the more you will get used to being out in the wind as long as you don't do anything crazy you want have to worrie about flipping over. Get you a bulge pump that is easily turned on/ off so if you was to take on water. I fish Guntersvill lake mostly and the river gets pretty high waves on it with the barges and pleasure boats from time to time the biggest thing is not to panic .if the waves r high turn ur nose to the it and ride it out.i have fished out of a 16' 48" flatbottom fir over 2 yrs and want hesitate to go in 10t mph wind . U will have problems with the wind pushing u side ways if you don't run with it or straight into
