I've run my 220svt 30 plus many times got beat up at times. Come to think of it I got beat up in 22 Aquasport. Not sure SW stinger but tran has 3 massive vertical stingers. I looked at SW n didn't like the storage up front. SVT you can store a 5 gal bucket for when you can't get to dock in time. I've taken waves over now and boat drains quick n Tran will put in larger scuppers. Consider raised deck for less water to store now you can be a semi submersible. Great boat to dive from very stable at anchor. I saw a BC of end of Port A jetties in 3's with 100 plus tarpon a couple weeks ago. Go with Tran for what you are wanting to do. Good luck fun process
 
It just seems to me with such a focus on offshore there are at least two manufacturers that make massive cats designed for shallow bay/offshore that would be much more confident in those conditions. Shallow Sports giant cat and Dargels giant cat seem to fit that bill so much better.
240SVT width 8'6" is not a massive cat??? Just lower gunnels that you don't necessarily need
