I've been debating to myself and in my head about moving up to a 280DA. I know the motto here is buy as much as you can afford. Well I'm pretty sure I'll have no problem with the 280, but there are two things that make a big difference in price. First though, the two reasons I am wanting to move up is to have a quiet place for my son to take a nap when we are on the hook. I've mentioned in another thread this concern with my current boat. The other reason is of course the footitis disease. Now to my two questions, which I'm sure has been debated since the Vikings cruised the seas.
1. How important is it to have a genny, or a better question, how bad is it not to have one? i realize it would be nice, but if I don't have it, will I really regret it?
2. One engine vs. two engine. Am I really going to miss having a 2nd engine, or at this size is it as big of a deal?
Ideally I'd love to have both, but which can I live without. In my experience so far in life, there has been things that I thought I just couldn't do without, then later I realize I could. Are some of these things that? With spring coming up, I want to decide if now is the right time, or wait for another year or two.
