The Montauk 210 can handle ocean conditions up the limits of a small craft advisory (SCA).
The definition of SCA is:
..astern (ME..SC, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts ranging between 25 and 33 knots (except 20 to 25 knots, lower threshold area dependent, to 33 knots for harbors, bays, etc.) and/or seas or waves 5 to 7 feet and greater, area dependent.
cf:

Personally, my limit is 5 waves and/or winds higher than 25 mph. More than this I find uncomfortable and would prefer a 25' Whaler.
