Here's a nice 2007 38' with staggered 525s and ITS/Sportmasters. New style cockpit interior, old style cabin. Pretty sure it can be bought at a decent price.

35 versus 38
 
I boat on the Barnegat and went from a 35 to a 38 fever. The 35 was fun in the bay but if you ever want to poke your nose in the ocean, there is no comparison. I love the 38. Just one guys thoughts

I spotted a nice 2008 35 on here some where but if your gonna run the outside AKA Ocean get a 38!Good luck!

If time spent "down below" is a factor you will enjoy the additional room in the 38. The head has its own sink. I cannot speak to the ride.
