That Contender is a good hull, I'll keep my opinions about teh motor to myself. That hull will handle rough water better than the V, but you'd be surprised as how little room it has inside compared to teh V. As far as that goes, teh 23 Sea Craft center console is pretty small as well, especially when you compare it to a 23 Sea Craft Scepter/Tsunami. Best thing for you to do is go to a redneck boat show, otherwise known as cruising the marinas and the dry stacks, look at as many boats as you can. Get a feel of the size and amenities. If you come down this way, I'll show you around.
