You missed my entire point. You want to cite your definitions of science and examine the bottom, and look at pics. I cite their continued success and record of oceanic cruising. Not one boat, not one owner, not one set of conditions. I've had conversations with Fleming owners, all praising their boats and many having been through some incredibly rough conditions.
You have zero basis for your assumptions other than looking at pictures of the boat from the back.
I don't have a need to prove it to you, as one most certainly could never do so.
But I base mine on statements like these following too.
Our Fleming 55, 'ANDANTE,' is just over four years old now and has completed 21,500 nm of ocean cruising around the East coast of Australia and overseas. This includes nine 700 nm passages through the notorious Bass Strait located between the SE corner of Australia and Tasmania. Passing through the Strait is always a challenge and an exercise in weather watching and timing. The extreme weather that comes in from the Southern Indian Ocean - one stretch is ominously named 'The Shipwreck Coast' because it presents a lee shore to all shipping and is a coastline dotted with many shipwrecks.
