Hi y'all, I live near Chesapeake Bay and am looking to buy an older aft-cabin boat with twin diesels, in the 35-38' range. Price in the $50-80k range. I have a friend with a 38' Hatteras DCMY from the early '70s. I love it but my wife thinks it's too big and slow (~35,000 lbs, 9 knot cruise speed with twin 6v71 Detroits). I looked at an early '80s President 37 with 8-cylinder 4-stroke Detroits. Seemed like a nice layout but the guy wanted too much for it. Also it had a lot of nice wood that would have to be varnished every year or two. Is anybody here familiar with the 37-38' Carver aft cabin that were made in the '80s-'90s? How about the Sea Ray aft cabin from the '90s? I also saw on yactworld.com an early '70s Chris Craft Catalina that seemed like a nice layout, with Ford Lehman diesels that are known to be bulletproof. I want to stay away from Yanmar engines, or anything else problematic.
