Inlines certainly have their time and place, but I agree BIG boards are the way to go, especially when pulling line-sets with lots of water resistance.
If you want "big boards" and don't want to make your own, take a look at those made by Amish Outfitters. You can run multiples of anything (i.e., leadcores, large-jets, dipsys, coppers, etc.) off them with little drop back, in any wave conditions.

I have used many "big" board varieties over the years (singles/doubles/triples; wood/metal/composites; single/double keel Otter Boats) both homemade and store bought, and the Amish Outfitter Boards are hands down the best i've seen or used.
Be careful however, they may pull too hard for your setup. Both the "wood" and "plastic versions pull HARD, the "plastics" pull harder. I have a pair of the "plastic" boards and sometimes I think they could pull my t-top off the boat

I am not affiliated in anyway with Amish Outfitters, just a satisfied customer.
