Relax... Visit places / sleep on it, entertain etc. I was thinking about 25
to 30 feet.

I plan on buying a power boat within the year and will be using it on
Long
Island Sound. What's a good size that can be easily handled by 1
person?


What do you want to do with it?

You're in the right range if you're talking 2-3 people, max. I might go to
the top of the range. There's a couple who have been cruising all over the
US for several years aboard a 27' Albin. I have a 32 Luhrs that has a great
aft deck and cabin for entertaining, but gets a little tight for three of us
after living aboard for more than about 4-5 days. If she had less cockpit
deck and more cabin, she'd be more livable in the longer term. Enjoy.
