I like the sit-on-tops much better. There are more options for rigging, actually more storage space with dry hatches. You have the ability to get in and out easily, when it's hot out a sit-on-top will let the breeze blow over your legs, feet, and mid section, on a sit in there is no breeze on your lower section, and you will get no sun on your legs in the summer. On a sit on top you don't usually roll over you fall out, and with a sit on top if you do roll over you won't take on water like a sit it. Imagine being 50 yards away from the bank and a big pleasure boat comes buy and puts some water over the top and you are in a sit in well you was going to be less stable now and have the possibility of capsizing, now if you on a sit on top the water just flows right out the scupper holes and you get a little wet at the worst.
