I have used mine with great success inshore but I would not go off shore with it.

How many people have your skills?
Lol. You might have a point. But honestly inshore is not an issues. Off shore yes.
ONLY if the waves were very tiny or nonexistent (as they often are in the Gulf). If only small waves at the beach, you'd be ok, once you got out past the breakers. Oh, and the above, only if you are an experienced canoeist (who would know which way to lean the boat relative to the current or waves). Lean the wrong way on either, and you are taking a swim. In short, I wouldn't recommend it.
But you'd probably be fine inshore (bay), like others have mentioned (unless it was really windy, with waves there).

My last trip to St. George I watched a guy in a sit in trying to get out past the breakers.After the third attempt he wisely gave up.Once that first wave broke over the bow it was over and he was sunk.

If testing your PFD is the goal, go for it.
