Sunseeker SuperHawk 48

I wouldn't say it's perfect but it has all the cra..stuff your looking for. Might need a bladder to get 100 galls of water.

Check the classifieds and the "swap section." The Gen, a/c, hot and cold water, and current layout requirements will narrow you down quite a bit, but you will find in time. I am not up with the current go-fast as to who offers Gen's and a/c, but what you described reminds me of what the Wellcraft Excalibur Eagle 42's were in the mid eighties. Can find some of those that have been well cared for.

A Baja 420, or 442 sounds pretty close to what you want. I dont know the capacities though, and they will be triple engine boats.
