Let me start off by saying I know this is supposed to be in the Newbie thread but I cant post there for whatever reason. I am a Veteran of the USMC who is a little broken and I have a service dog. I am interested in getting a sport cruiser like a 270-300 sundancer. My budget is about 20k and I an wait until next year to increase it 25k if it really makes that big of a deal. I grew up the boat world and am familiar operating sport boats. I want something that I can hop around the great lakes and camp at a beach or get a slip for the night. I am asking for advice about the different sizes and different years. I could spend months reading here and still not come close to what someone who has had these boats for a couple of years know. So any years I should stay away from if I can help it? Would it be unreasonable to operate a 30ft boat by myself or with people who know nothing about boats? Any other advice you think will be of value in my search would be greatly appreciated.
