6'4 headroom in a blue water cruiser

[Susieclue]

My partner and I are looking for a full keel blue water cruiser under 40 feet long. If anyone has recommendations and/or boats to avoid I would greatly appreciate your feedback. We're new sailors who are planning a circumnavigation within the next 3 years. Thanks for your input.

6'4" headroom cruiser

A Cal 34 has 6'4" headroom, it has a fin 4000lb keel. Fast and easy to sail.
