Lot of good choices mentioned. I'll through out another that may be an alternative to Fountain and fits size/price range. Velocity 320- large cockpit and efficient solid hull design. 85+ boat with fresh stock HP465/502's, 1 yr old cockpit upholstery and a lot of boat for 45k.

I brought her home last night. Went out for a short ride today she runs great. I spent some time cleaning on it today and will spend most of tomorrow cleaning more.

Here she is. https://www.facebook.com/bernie.neuh...09689690739529

I'm going to update the interior and the paint this winter. And it has 32p bravos not 30! I was shocked how well it turns them.

Not sure but next weekend if the NT is ready I'm sure I'll hit up Redhead Yacht club and could walk over to PBC and look at it for you.

That is very kind of you. If we would buy a 312 it would be with 6.2s in it. Thank you for the offer though. That boat is very temping...
