Hi:
I recently purchased a 22 Glacier Bay Renegade, principally because I  
was impressed by the lack of pounding in a chop (as well as the  
increased interior room for the length. I am not new to boating,  
having had a 48 foot motoryacht previously, among other boats. Having  
said that, while I am very satisfied with the behavior of the boat in  
a chop, head or quartering sea, my wife and I are quite uncomfortable  
with the rolling motion in a confused, following, or beam sea. I know  
these boats have quite a following on this site so I am asking for  
advice as how to handle this situation. Thanks in advance to those who  
respond to this novice in power cats.
