Catamarans,
Open ocean with 15 to 30 foot seas in a 40 - 50 foot boat...
Full keel, double ended ketch, something along the lines of Atkins designs. Most likely steel if you are heading to ice areas. In that size range, no power boat, no multihulls for high latitude cruising.

Been there, done that, got the puke stained T-shirt. No need to do it again!

Good luck
Dave


PS Better idea, get a good weather service, Ocean Marine Navigation and avoid the 30 footers
