They might not sink, but their "safeness" won`t make up for an inept skipper. fill the boat up to the gunwales with a wave, and a Whaler will turtle on you, just like every other boat, and leave you sitting on the outside of the bottom, wondering what to do next.
Start looking around for a beer that didn't sink. What else is there to do? :o
Being new to boating doesn't make him an inept skipper. Everybody starts somewhere. But I hear you about swamping. I always wanted to swamp the 13 when I was a kid, just to see how it would behave, but I think my old man would have frowned on that!
I take it you've swamped your 13 then?
