We’ve looked at quite a few boats over the past few months and there were several that we didn’t like, whether it’s the style, layout, number of levels, engines, etc. I’m not ruling out gas engines, but would prefer diesels purely from a maintenance and safety level. Right now, a Sea Ray 400 Sedan with Caterpillar 3126’s has really caught my eye. Also interested in the Carver 36 Mariner, the Regal Commodore 4080 and the Meridian 341 (though I have yet to actually get on board one — may be too small.) Primarily, we are looking for a 16-knot+ cruiser that we could use for a day trip to a gulf-coast island or for a week or two cruising to the Keys or even the Bahamas. I’m well aware that, especially as a life-long C&C owner, that there will be compromises and disappointments, but I’m looking to transition into a less-active form of boating where the only winch on board is electric and it drops the anchor. Now that we are here in Florida for good, we can’t wait to explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations…. And, our Prime Directive will not change — Wherever We Go, We Go Boldly — I just want to be at a speed that I won’t need to take extra time off. All the best, Edd Edd M.

The Carver/Regal/Sea Ray lineup probably would not meet expectations if you had a C&C for very long. I worked on all of them and delivered some back in the day and unless they got a LOT better than they used to be, I can't see a C&Cer being happy with them. Also do not be fooled by "diesel". Sailors tend to extrapolate "lasts forever" and "sips fuel" to diesel powerboats and neither one of those things necessarily apply. Many boosted high output diesels have short lifespans and "economical" is in comparison to a pair of big block V8s. I worked on a SeaRay 55 and I had to run her hard to do some autopilot calibrations. I think I was going through 100 gallons an hour! Also the layout and décor seemed ideal for bachelor parties - cruising not so much. Heck - even the slow Grand Banks trawlers use a LOT of fuel compared to any sailboat without going much faster.

Most likely looking for a sedan bridge with diesels. All the best, Edd ———————————— Thanks to all of the subscribers that contributed to the list to help with the costs involved.
