My family wants a powerboat for overnight and weekend trips from Marina Del
Rey to Catalina Island.

Needs to sleep, feed, entertain 6 comfortably.

Would prefer a boat that can be beached, but not a deal breaker by any
means.

I'm considering two classes: a boat for the Marina Del Rey to Catalina
Island or a boat that can be used for coastal cruising from the Channel
Islands to San Diego.

Safety, dependability, comfort, and performance would be the order of
priorities.

Of course, until I win the lottery, price, initial and overall, is a major
factor.

Any recommendations?
