If you are planning extensive offshore usage in anything but ideal weather
and conditions, you will want to re-think a Bayliner. Bayliners have a bad
reputation for hull failures in heavy water. (See N.T.S.B. sinking reports
at Coast Guard website.)

Link, please.

To a USCG cite that establishes Bayliners have a "reputation for hull failures"

I typed in "NTSB sinking reports" on the USCG search engine and got zip. I must
be doing something wrong, and I'd love to see the source of your impression.
Thanks
