Cruising World
In the April 1998 issue (p. 50), there is an extensive article written by John Holtrop on his selection of 'great cruising boats' which was compiled using a mathematical concept called "Fuzzy Logic". He considered 507 monohull boats from 28 to 58 feet in which the Endeavour 42 appears. The article is meant to be a starting point in evaluating boats for offshore use by using a statistical model. You can download his database and the Fuzy Logic progam (800k, Excel 5) from the Internet at:
