The GB/DD/1906 destroyer design

Cliff's destroyer design, which he intended to mass-produce, works pretty well in Springsharp, except for being a bad seaboat. I'm not sure what to do, without some pretty drastic action. The "Performance" tab characterizes the design as "Design well balanced for a light fast combatant". This is the report:

	Range 1,250nm at 15.00 kts
	Bunker at max displacement = 132 tons
	  Caution: Delicate, lightweight machinery

Complement:
	79 - 103

Cost:
	£0.105 million / $0.420 million

Distribution of weights at normal displacement:
	Armament: 5 tons, 0.6 %
	Machinery: 525 tons, 60.5 %
	Hull, fittings & equipment: 244 tons, 28.1 %
	Fuel, ammunition & stores: 94 tons, 10.9 %
	Miscellaneous weights: 0 tons, 0.0 %

Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
	Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
	  208 lbs / 94 Kg = 10.0 x 3.5 " / 88 mm shells or 0.2 torpedoes
	Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.53
	Metacentric height 1.4 ft / 0.4 m
	Roll period: 9.4 seconds
	Steadiness	- As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 45 %
			- Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.07
	Seaboat quality  (Average = 1.00): 0.82

Hull form characteristics:
	Hull has a flush deck
	Block coefficient: 0.472
	Length to Beam Ratio: 9.81 : 1
	'Natural speed' for length: 16.28 kts
	Power going to wave formation at top speed: 73 %
	Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 50
	Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 2.00 degrees
	Stern overhang: 1.00 ft / 0.30 m
	Freeboard (% = measuring location as a percentage of overall length):
	   - Stem:		19.00 ft / 5.79 m
	   - Forecastle (20 %):	18.00 ft / 5.49 m
	   - Mid (30 %):		12.00 ft / 3.66 m
	   - Quarterdeck (15 %):	12.00 ft / 3.66 m
	   - Stern:		12.00 ft / 3.66 m
	   - Average freeboard:	13.58 ft / 4.14 m

Ship space, strength and comments:
	Space	- Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 199.6 %
		- Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 112.8 %
	Waterplane Area: 4,650 Square feet or 432 Square metres
	Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 31 %
	Structure weight / hull surface area: 24 lbs/sq ft or 116 Kg/sq metre
	Hull strength (Relative):
		- Cross-sectional: 0.44
		- Longitudinal: 2.93
		- Overall: 0.53
	Hull space for machinery, storage, compartmentation is cramped
	Room for accommodation and workspaces is adequate
	Poor seaboat, wet and uncomfortable, reduced performance in heavy weather
