Default 23 pontoon boat vs 21 Bayliner?

I rented a pontoon boat this week on a lake. The family really enjoyed the
wide open floor and seating compared to the confined cuddy on the Bayliner
we used to own. How would a pontoon boat ride and handling compare to my
old bayliner on long island sound with 1 to 3 foot waves and strong current?



Seems to me that a pontoon slicing though the water makes a great
smooth ride on a pond, small lake, or river, but 3 foot waves? it
would probably handle that ok too, that is, if you like being soaked
when the waves go flooding over your deck.

I wouldn't want that.
