keel/centerboard seaworthiness
It very much depends on the design. Certainly some of the 1960''s/ 1970''s era keel centerboarders designed by the like of S&S, Charlie Morgan, Ted Brewer, and Ted Hood (Dieter Empacher)etc. were intended as sea boats and did well as such. While they were typically a little heavier than a similar keel boat with a similar stability, they offered good sailing manners on most points of sail, espcially if you don''t mind playing the board.
