Mark that DD is clearly a FD but the "52" is very close to FD. The biggest difference in the two boats is displacement not hull form. The "52" is probably closer to FD than the DeFever 49. That's close.
With a low displacement and low wetted surface for a boat w a keel she (the 52) could be a very efficient cruiser.
