Ok, let's try this again. The boat has a heavy off shore displacement hull. Depending on how it was setup and size of fuel tanks, it could be a passagemaker. The hull is clearly designed for heavy seas and off shore fishing. I have a coastal recreational trawler. Slow Hand has hard chines, shallow draft, and no ballast. It's good for the Carrabean and maybe, if you feel lucky, a trip to Bermuda (700 to 800 miles). Passagemakers need to shed water. While there are plenty of scuppers on the sides, I much prefer the open side decks and stern of a KK42. To me the stern house or whatever it's called, should have walkways and scuppers around and behind it. With a hull like that, it should have house structure like a Romsdal.
That's my opinion; worth what you paid for it.
