Paul,

I just bought a Sea Ray 268 Sundancer and it's plenty big, but it has
really taken some getting used to. My first boat was a 20 Maxum
bowrider that handled like a breeze after two or three trips out. Not
much in rough water, but easy to dock and would turn on a dime. I
think that 32 feet would be even toughter than the 27 feet I have now,
so might want to consider 20 to 23 feet for your first whack at it.
What ever you do, take at least on boating course, go slow and be
safe.

Good Luck!
