Default A boat recommendation please...

A friend of mine and I were talking this morning about boats and he
mentioned that his wife wants to get more involved in his boating
activities now that she is retired. He currently owns a 20 foot
Aquasport CC which is pretty much a fishing boat. The Mrs. would like
some amenities beyond a bucket under a blanket if you get my drift.

He's not sure that his spouse will take to the water all that well, so
he's considering purchasing something used with a cuddy cabin in the
23/26 foot range, trailerable and he doesn't want to get stuck with a
big dollar boat if the spouse doesn't take to Island trips (Martha's,
Vineyard, etc.). Say $5/10 K "experiment" money.

I know nothing about that kind of boat, models or types as I have
always owned open boats, mostly center consoles.

Toss me a few ideas as to manufacturers and what not if you will - I
appreciate it.

Later,
