Hi allThank you all for your help, howeverI am trying to be more specificThe Yachts in question is the Jeanneau 54 Vs. Beneteau 57Money is not the major issue here (we are aware of the price differential,however, is it worth it?) , rather overall sailing quality, integrity of theyacht, craftsmanship, etc.Most (if not all) of the sailing will be in the Mediterranean.Thanks again for your wise commentszami
