Default boat shopping

I am looking for a high performance overnighter,about 38 ft standard beam about 70 mph. Want a microwave and a head with shower..I have owned many hipo offshore type boats. Boating on Puget Sound 40 plus years. I am selling my 2002 Forumla 353 FastTech- not enough amenities. It's been a great boat for my wife and me . Looking at Fountains 38 sc not the express cruiser. Any ideas or other choices. thx

40 Hustler also has a pretty decent and tall cabin, but does not have as large of bed/vbirth as the Black Thunder

380 Powerquest has been a great weekending boat for us. 6' head room in cabin. Check them out. There is a brand new 2020 model that was built with Merc 520's (78 mph) that is available even.
