His assertion is based on common sense, and the fact that the boat is
not designed or built for off-shore conditions. Where is your
evidence that the boat will not break up in heavy seas? It's not
impossible, plenty of other boats have met that fate. Pick one up 30
feet into the air and drop it to the water a few times. That will
give you a good idea where the weak spots are.
