What the model is suitable for

conditionally suitable for blue-water sailing and long-distance cruising

The shipyard itself says that the 5.8 is intended for operation with crew and that the 5.4 is the limit for owner operation. For long-distance sailing with two people and no crew, this is a clear caveat, but no test with two people is available.
