Ship size and stability have little to do with each other. The old oceanliners of yesteryear sailed the Northern Atlantic on a regular basis where there is really rough weather. Most of today's larger cruise ships couldn't handle these conditions with close to the aplomb of those smaller vessels because they weren't designed for such rough conditions.In vehicles, trucks don't ride smoother than much smaller luxury sedans. And some large trucks can't handle conditions of some much smaller off-roaders. For seakeeping qualities of a vessel, It is all in the engineering, balancing of the vessel, draft (area and percentage of the ship under the water), and many other factors that determine the vessel's stability.I think, however, the Mecury sails differently than the larger Voyager class RCi ships and may seem less stable.
