Moody Eclipse 43 Comfort ratio - Ocean crossing

We're considering an Eclipse 43 but the comfort ratio of 27.84 from sailboatdata.com suggests it won't be terribly comfortable.

I've not crossed an ocean so I don't know what this number means in practice. Plenty of other production boats have lower scores and cross oceans, so does anyone have experience of doing so in an Eclipse? (The boat, I mean)

We're an inexperienced family of 4 plus a dog, looking to go long term cruising. We plan to learn round the UK and the Med before attempting a crossing, but I'm just trying to think ahead.
