I bet it handles rough water just fine! The C Dory has a semi-displacement hull similar to my Eastern. VERY fuel efficient! This type of hull takes a little bit of getting used to especially if your coming from a deep V style boat. In rough water it's trim down, throttle down and let the hull do its job. You don't want to expose the flat bottom to rough waves.
As time goes by please report back and let us know your thoughts. I am quite interested. Personally I think you will love it once you get used to it...
