Peterson 44, no contest.

It just won't do Oz, it's got a 62 Hp engine fer Gawds sake! Whatever
will Neal say?
Other than that, a damn nice boat, if you like center cockpits.

Obviously, a catamaran makes the best liveaboard, assuming you have a place to put it.
While I love PDQs, I think the new 42 would be over $300K, and very few on the used
market. However, I've been very impressed with the Manta 42:

This boat ought to make a good liveaboard.

Of course, the draft is too deep for gunkholing, so she's not really all that
great as a cruiser. But roomy, and impressive... enough deck space for partying
with friends. Of course you'd need to keep the loose knicknacks to a minimum if
you were ever going to sail it...

It's the right color at least.

You need to go easy on the exterior semi-gloss you got at
ACE hardware...

Just curious, I wonder what it's "personal overboard module" entails?
