I'm down to 2 skis, a fishing boat, the Lavey that is in process and the same wife for 41 years. Amazing. Quent

I'm gonna stir it up here, but oh well. Having owned many diff manufactured boats, what was your all around favorite, as far as experience in general. Not the fastest, loudest, most comfortable, but rather, what delivered the best all around experience for an offshore boat? If you had to throw a dart at the list, which one would be the bullseye???

Here's a link to the same topic from years ago
