Kinda my thought as well!
Let me see if I've got this right. Trolling a 23' boat in an 8' or so BREAKING beam sea and I am supposed to blame whatever happens on the design of the boat!
Nevermind that the boat in question has probably the SAFEST hull going for working out of those type of conditions, albeit some course other than continuing take the BREAKING 8 footers on the abeam.
I think whoever originally thought to write those comments is NOT someone in whom I would put a lot of confidence in for their advice on such matters!!!!! Other than that, he is probably a great guy to share a beach with and dream of knowing what the the rest of us do.
