I know the pirate boats are sturdy and well built, but aside from an extra 3ft, what does the change bring you? 

My friend ( ok someone I know) has recently bought one, very well made but noticeably narrow, I know they are said to be very good in heavy seas but not sure how much they roll.

I looked at one but couldn’t afford one at the time so went with an Orkney Pilothouse 20. 
 

Pirate are a heavy lay up but as observed, narrow so good at punching through a swell. 
 

if on the drift, best to drift bow on not beam on as they will roll a bit (thinking about sharking here) but stable at anchor due to the deep V
