To protect the guilty for now, I won't mention the manufacturer of a then-new 35-footer we day chartered a few years ago. It had some nice features and went upwind very well. But, a big but, you had to be a three-armed circus acrobat with flashlight and mirror just to check the oil! I wonder how many owners of this boat neglect to maintain their engines.

Also, there was a locker on the sugarscoop swim platform that opened directly into the hull with what looked like a real risk of flooding and attacking some boat systems adjacent to the hatch.
