No, it's defensible on several grounds. It was invented by a
knowledgeable NA, it does model
that "bigger + heavier = more comfort" which is true, and it is widely
quoted.


It also assigns a very low comfort number to the Frers 41 which jibes
very closely with my experience. It has a quick squirrelly motion
offshore and is a bit of a vomit comet.
