Welcome Jeff, Looks like you are getting lots of replies. Folks have been sailing with a family of 4 in all sizes of boats. We went 25-36-40 and bigger is more comfortable for sure. My advice would be buy a C&C! Best condition, newest and most comfortable you can afford. You can figure out the cost to keep a boat in your area and if you are a DIY guy add 3-5 K per year for stuff. If you aren’t a DIY guy, triple that! Taken care of your boat will last for generations, just ask Joe. Whatever you do use a surveyor when you think you have the right boat. Good luck finding the right boat for your family, it’s a fun journey. Len Mitchell Crazy Legs 1989 37+ Midland On.
