We've had our 320 'Dancer for 6 seasons now and have really enjoyed it. But in the summer I like to use the boat as my "home" office and realized whenever I needed air conditioning or quiet to make a call, I'm down in the cabin with no sunshine and no view. So we're looking at moving to a 37' to 43' sedan bridge as an option. Recently saw a used Meridian 391 and while the level of finish was not quite up to Sea Ray standards, we were impressed with the layout and the ability to see outside from most every seat on the boat.
The biggest concern I have (you may tell me I should have others) is the boat has 8.1 HO gas engines instead of diesels. My question is whether it is underpowered which I'll get a feeling for with a test drive, but I'm also concerned about my ability to sell the boat in the future if most buyers are looking for diesels in this class boat.
Any and all opinions are welcomed! Any general insights on Meridian (above and beyond what searching existing threads has told me) would also be great.
