16 or 160 Dauntless, Im not exactly sure, versus Montauk 17. classic. (1980's style)

I have a 1966 hull that I think does rather well in chop.

I had a 1996 17 outrage II, i though did well in chop and awful in 2-3 ft seas with a small period. i mean awful, bannged around hard, had to do about 12-14 mph or else it felt like my teeth were giong to break, im young, <30 years old and I thought this. I had trim tabs and a 150hp motor on the boat, and understand trimming the boat.

My brother is looking at 16 dauntless and 17 montauk as his choices.

Which has a better ride in a bad chop, say a real 1-2 foot sea with a short wave period, at say 20-30mph.

The dauntless apperars to have a deeper v, but I don't know.

Thanks.
