Timeless interior. The main pic would look a lot better with the boat in the water or trailered. Something about a $100,000 boat on blocks looks ghetto.
Great thread RC! I’m very excited for you

This is why I titled the thread that. The wife only likes 150+ boats but insists we stick to 100k. Plus it has to check all those boxes I listed. This is going to be tough. Can't complain though, she's done well in life and is the majority shareholder in our home and savings.

Super sexy. Especially the one at the boat show with twin 200s. That went 60mph.

If I had known you would be ok with I/O (like in the cutwater suggested a few posts back), and you were ok going above $100k (like the cutwater suggested a few posts back) I would have suggested this one a while ago;

D4 is a good engine. The DPH outdrive holds up well behind the D4.
You'll burn 8-10 gph at fast cruise.

I think the issue you're going to have is, the Cutwater style that you like is recent (approx 2012 or newer). Prior to that it was the Commander style cabin cruiser. The Cutwater style brings the newer more contemporary look, and the newer higher price. The Commander brings the older style, but is going to be cheaper as it is older. You're really looking for a newer modern styled boat with an older boats price tag. Something has to change in the criteria or you have to wait for them to be a few more years old. I can't think of any other pilothouse/cruiser style with the modern fit and finish that you want, that will fit your wants within your budget constraint unfortunately.

sounds like you wanna fish; she wanna cruise.( same problem here...) That Cutwater you are looking at is gorgeous and forever out of my wheelhouse but not looking very fish-able or prawn/ crab happy. Can’t even imagine drilling holes in that thing let alone swinging a trap full of mud; sand and bottom dwellers aboard that beauty.

I hear you there, I'm sure the first gouge will hurt.

Looks great....but I didn't realize they sold these with straight shafts. It's a lot slower than I expected, although the economy would be nice I'm sure

I would be curious to hear what owners think also, love the layouts and styles but I recall things feeling flimsy when I checked them out at boatshow once
