Is that your final answer?
 
You just won the lottery and plan to purchase (new or used) a 50 some foot
boat. Money is no object.

First of all, what style would you choose.......cruiser, motor yacht, pilot
house, trawler, convertible, tug, catamaran, sailboat or other?

Now what specific make and model?

No question about it - a 34' Mainship, the Sedan version:

I'd go for a bigger sailboat, hire a crew, and spend the next 3+ years
sailing the Mediterranean. I'd love to get back to the Greek Isles.

A "50 some foot" boat?

To presume to staying in that range, a Hallett 540-T would be a fun
toy. But a Hinckley T55 would be a classy ride. But who wouldn't like
the lines of a Riva 52 Rivale...

Wow...too many choices right now.

I was at a marina last year to buy some charts, and one of those boats
stopped me dead in my tracks. Salesman came out to ask if I wanted to see
the inside. I told him there was no way in hell I could afford it. He said
"So?" :-) Smart salesman!

Hi JimH.: I would like to have the Gozzard G53 MY as seen on this
site. www.gozzard.com This is very close to Bayfield and is a
perfect boat for cruising anywhere. I just love it.

I could sit in the pilot house and read this new book that I received
today in the mail. It is called "The War on Christmas" and it was
sent to me by a real gentleman!

Thanks for sending it to me.

There's one for sale at my marina. Been drooling over it for a couple of
months. 50 footer, with stabilizers. Awesome.
