I would suggest that when the topic becomes "best powerboats" it is
appropriately for another forum;

Of course! But maybe it can be agreed that side conversations that might not be
of broad interest to the community be conducted on the side. All I am saying.

Subject: Stus-List Re: Now best powerboats It's a community list of C&C
enthusiasts that sometime have side conversations. I hope Edd stays a part of
the community even after he moves to a different type of vessel. Edd, I may
be moving to your area, in a few years, if all goes well!

Subject: Stus-List Re: Now best powerboats Joe, Thanks. 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.

I would agree with that. 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.

Danny,
Possibly, but it would have to be a fast trawler. Most likely looking for a
sedan bridge with diesels.
All the best,
