Hi Steve, & welcome from Sunny Western Australia, a 16 foot boat would be fine on the sea, I would be reluctant to take it out on the sea if the swell was over 1M 3 foot, maybe 1.5 M at the most, just remember to have a the safety gear including epirb, & if you get into any trouble, line trying to get a rope of of the prop, throu you anchor in the water first, so the nose of the boat is facing into the wind & waves, then you can leen out the back safely, good luck  owe by the way leave some fish in the sea for us, cheers Don.

Sounds like being prepared, knowing your boat, navigation system, student of marine weather, location beacon, anchor & 300 ft of rope, VHS and more. Lots to learn. Steve

Welcome Steve,The folks on this forum are experts.
Any questions you may have about your reels someone on here will have a
qualified answer
I've made it through 2 shoulder surgeries myself, you will be OK
Do your physical therapy and stay active.
If I can answer any questions about what to expect from your surgery let me know.

Welcome Steve!  Just post your questions and I'm sure someone could help.
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D
