Slider1 I'm right there with you!! We were moving up to a 29-30 but have decided not to as my daughters are heavy into softball and thats where you'll find me 4-5 days out of the week. We've managed to get out once this year. The great thing is the 26 is fairly inexpensive to hold so if it's not getting much use it's no big deal. If I had the 30 in the drive I'd feel a lot more obligated to use it.

Hot Boat
28 powerquest are Well built.
I've been looking at a 28' singles lately and happened upon the Powerquest 280 Silencer. Seems like they are a great bang for the buck. It seems that year for year, option for option, the PQ has so much to offer. Anything I should know before making a long range trip to see one or two?
I know the company has been bought and sold a bunch of times and are no longer in business. I've also read that these boats have a balsa wood core.
However, in their hay day, it seems that PQ was highly regarded ranking up there with Sunsation. I mention Sunsation as that is my first choice but I can't pass up at least looking at a PQ for $15K less.
