Perfect Storm...History channel Question

Hi,
Recently I watched an actual documentary on the legendary "Perfect Storm" .My question revolves around the footage of a small liveaboard sailboat that was caught in this
storm.The individual did not want to leave his boat and insisted he and the boat would survive this ordeal,(He had years of experience at sea),the US Coast Guard thought otherwise and declared his voyage unsafe and plucked him off his boat.After the storm passed the man spent alot of money to locate his boat and found it intact washed upon a shore.
Did anyone happen to see this show and notice what kind of sailboat it was.(They showed a brief clip of his boat washed up on the seashore).I figure this was a fine boat to survive this.

Thanks,
Jerry O
