You are right about that. I think everyone should practice driving a boat in rough water. Bad weather can come out of nowhere and driving a boat can get dangerous very quickly. I will trim my motor up and "ride the ditch" when it gets rough. Getting that nose up in the air can save you from being soaking wet. With the nose up I will zig zag the lake until I can get to safer waters. Riding the ditch and learning when to throttle the motor can make it as easy as possible. I learned by watching a YouTube video of Gerald Swindle teaching how to ride rough water.
