I don't buy any aspect of the whole theory on a boat of comfort being less seaworthy. In most cases they have more equipment and more backup systems as well. As to the hull and structure, they may or may not be more seaworthy. I think that's perhaps what the no frills constituency has convinced themselves. My wife reminds me that it's a bit like seeing the beautiful blue eyed blonde with big ...."chest assets" and immediately thinking she can't possibly be smart. She and our CFO Jennifer both serve as direct contradiction to that.

Isn't Nordhavn a cottage boat by his definition and KK? Fleming? How about a 164' Westport? Is it unseaworthy? What makes it so, the helicopter pad? What about Jobs' Venus?
