RE: 35' Senator Sundeck

Tracy,
Well, my boat is not for sale though truth be told, if you offered me $100k I'd consider it.

You can get a boat in the 35-36' range with twins but you will have a cramped engine room. Where are you boating and why the desire for twins? Don't get me wrong, the handling of twin screws is awesome. While our monk is my first run with a single screw, so far I am really enjoying it and appreciate the simplicity and reduced costs from maintenance to fuel burn, etc. But having twin screws for close quarter maneuvering is definitely nice! A single screw boat with thrusters though can do virtually anything a twin screw can do and you'd have space to put a cot in the engine room for your mother in law.
