I'm new to boating but a seasoned motor head. I live in New England and enjoy boating on lakes as well as the ocean. I hope to buy a boat in about 6 months to a year. I would like a boat with:
Cabin my wife and I could camp in overnight.
70mph+
Single BB Engine
Always liked the looks and speed of Cats
I'd love to buy used as I don't want to spend more than $60k.
With this in mind, is there a 26'-28' single engine cat that can take on open water. Seems like a lot of fast boats I see have flat bottoms that would take a pounding in the ocean. What manufacturers have boats like I described that I may be able to find used?
Thanks in advance.
