Or docking single handed anywhere, especially with the optional helm in the centre cockpit. It makes me drool thinking of how close I could bring that boat to wildlife & rocks while photographing, with more freedom than leaning out the pilothouse door like I have to do now.
As far as handling larger waves goes I think it would be about 1/2 way between a regular pilothouse flybridge trawler and a fully loaded expedition sea kayak, which is about as sea worthy as a swimming duck.
