If you are staying below 40ft I would look at the Donzi 39. That's a nice boat or the 40 Formula SS. Also the Sunseeker.

Formula. You can still call a dealer and get parts.
Haven't heard many good things about Fountain cruisers, other than they are fast. I thought a 48 EC with diesels and surface drives would be cool. A former owner told me otherwise. Just hearsay, passing along what was told to me.
