Help!!! the wife wants a cruiser
 
I need info! My wife is now thinking cruisers and I am thinking divorce! I need a performance type cruiser such as Powerquest. Has anyone had any experience with the 29' Envision. I understand this is a copy of the Pachanga hull. What about Mach 1's 29', it has a windshield right. I can't have anything with a faring. Please help I don't want to "go slow all the time".

gfw you might like two look at a fountain 38 ec or a 31sfc not knowing how big of boat you want the 38 ec will run 70 + on hp500 mercs

Find a clean 340 Baja Yacht,,,502's it ran 55 + !!!!!

Sea Ray SS series-the 31 has a great hull and has most of the ameneties. The 37 is really sweet, but slower. Of course some BIG power will get both of them flying:D

You may consider staying away from the Mach 1. Saw some at the boat show a few years ago and subsequently saw them on the river. They fell apart. Just my opinion.

Check Harrisonmarine.com they have a 1999 43 Black Thunder that was repoed and you might be able to get a great buy!

Come on now.... we're missing the obvious solution. Get a new wife (one that likes OUR kind of boating).:D

Screw the compromise; use diamonds on her – worked for me:D

The Diamond thing works , I gave her a Nice 1 carat on Feb 14
some roses and the next month I was boat shopping

If she just won't bend on the cruiser idea, meet her half way.:)
I'd agree on the Black Thunder- tremendous cabin and efficient hull. If you have to have more beam, you can't beat the Formula 40SS or 37SS. Pretty quick boats with HP500 power for their size- they use the Fas3Tec hull.
