I agree with krj, it does not required days at sea. It is only a 4 to 6 day
sail from Galveston to Cancun, then hopping around like you said. we just
want a boat that is comfortable enough to live on when we are on the boat.
And, the layout of the early to mid 80s Hunter 345 is perfect for us to be
comfortable. I like the queen sized berth under the cockpit. The stern rides
much smoother than the bow. I think the full keel model would be perfect.
All sailboats need to reef down when the wind picks up. It will be our
floating home while we are away from the old land base. What other sailboat
would you recommend for 20 to 25 Gs that is as comfortable?

talk to a broker, dude. they like to sell high end boats, to be sure, but they
see a LOT of boats owners want to sell.

I think you would have a hard time finding a "full keel" 84 Hunter. Do
you mean deep fin keel?
