Go look at some of them in your
price range. Narrow down the selections. If you go for a Cavalier, make sure the
surveyor checks out the
mast step, some friends of ours had to
rebuild theirs. Suit the yacht to your expected needs. Bargain well.
Seriously,though,
Google the brands you're interested in, see if you can find out the problems each has. Go look at boats.
Boat choice is so much a personal thing, don't let a committee choose it for you.
