Atlantic 55 for long term cruising?

Hi there

We're currently looking for a yacht for long term cruising. Initial plan is to go from the Med over the Atlantic to the Carribean.

I have seen an Atlantic 55 for sale in Greece, but it seems I cannot find any further information about this kind of boat.

Is this or can this be turned into a suitable bluewater cruiser? Any owners of an Atlantic 55 around or any people with experience?

She seems to be designed as a charter boat (4 double berths + crew).

Possibly built in Greece.. saw a few when we were there.... nowhere else.

Poor build quality.. IMO of course.
