RE: Searching for the 'Perfect' Loop Boat...

And if Pilothouse type boats are in your search, you already mentioned the Marine Trader but don't forget the Defever 49PH. There are some nice ones JUST under $200k. But realize it is a BIG boat with not much interior space...a lot has been sacrificed to the aft cockpit and the side decks....nothing wrong with that. But my first impression when I first boarded one was how massive it looked from the outside and it just didn't seem that big on the inside. I do think they are fine boats and excellent liveaboards!!! And whoever the cook is in your family will love the galley.
