Default seafari 25

I have an opportunity to purchase a non running seacraft seafari 25. I have never been on one and concerned with some of the reading I digested so far. I am concerned with some comments of its handling while underway can be tender, wants to lay down on its side(when someone moves from side to side). Another issue is that it is very sensitive to trim and you always have to adjust trim tabs while underway. I am familiar with the ride and handling of deep v hulls, I have owned Bertram 25, 26, Albemarle 24, north coast 24, cary 32 etc. I also owned a seacraft savage 23 inboard. I owned a performer 24 and it was a great looking hull with single I/0. This hull would scare the @@@it out of you. You would accelerate and the boat would heel over to port and the gunwhale would be inches from the water. I would adjust the trim tabs and level it out and it would heel again. I sold that boat after a week. I also had several experienced captains run the boat for me and they could not figure it out. I am hoping the seacraft 25 seafari is not the same. Can anyone with experience care to comment. I am looking for my last build, want to get it right, I am really tired of buying and selling boats. Thanks in advance.
