Capt RB Peterson 44, no contest. http://old.cruisingworld.com/ssbk/pete44.htm 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. Cheers Marty |

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: http://www.mantausa.com/prod_42.html http://www.cruisingworld.com/cw_arti...p?articleID=12 "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

This boat ought to make a good liveaboard.
http://taxidancer.us/ 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... DSK |

What's a few best liveaboard sailing vessels, under 55 feet and under 300K on the used market? Capt RB I would build a steel hull like this one: http://www.sailinglinks.com/images/RedCloud.jpg Sleeps six, but perfect for 2 to live on. Strong enough that even you will feel safe out in the deep water. Long cruising range, room for a party in the cockpit and you all stay dry. Small enough to single hand, yet large enough to be comfortable. You can also buy some nice kits from Bruce Roberts. Here in the marina is a sweet 62 foot aluminum ketch, But it's 335K.

Red Cloud - a particularly apt name for a steel boat. Always surrounded by a cloud of red rust. S.Simon Perhaps that is true on any steel hull that you would maintain. However Redcloud has an average of approx. 20 mils of paint. 13 mils on the cabins 27 mils on the decks and 23 mils on the hulls. Applied by a master steel preservation expert.....me. I measured it just yesterday with my handy dandy Mikrotest Magnetic Gage made in Germany by Elektrophysik-Koln. Have you gauged the size of those blisters on your flimsy hull lately?
