We are looking at buying a boat for living aboard(during summer)and doing some sailing and diving chartering in the Med(Italy). We have been looking at the Macgregor 65, Bavaria 50 and Beneatau 50. We like the Macgregor for the size and speed but have heard thats its not a very good blue water boat(Macgregor owners dont yell)but have heard the opposite from some Macgregor owners. We would love some input from all of you(especially from owners of these 3 makes)as to speed, comfort, ease of sailing, ease of water access, maintenance, reliabilty, etc. We know there are better but we have limited ourselves to under 200k price range..Any input would be appreciated and welcomed from ALL types owners..

From the pictures I've seen, the 65 is a high(er) performance boat than the other 2 and doesn't have the interior layout for living aboard that the Bavaria and Bene has. It may very well be faster but the differences for cruising would be small.
Hunter 50
Have you seen the new Hunter 50 center cockpit. We saw it at the Annapolis Show and she looks like she would be a great liveaboard with that huge aft cabin. Their 49 was nice too.
