What is should cost and what I want it to cost are two very different numbers! :banghead:

Keep it under $3k/lineal foot and you'll stay very busy and leave enough room for a really tricked out model to stay under that psychological barrier of $100k. Jmho of course...

I like finished look for sure. is the 22 knts max speed or cruise? what speed for best fuel economy?

Like the Teak (rubber Floor) mat. The back to windows are they to be covered with glass or Issor glass? Dawg you are very much in denial if you want a tricked out boat like that to come in under 100,K double that and you might be in the ball park.

26' Is about the magic number where things tend to cost more. I'm thinking 160 to180k.

Tricked out as in mink interior and gold plated instrument panels.....as a 26' day cruiser won't need all the fancy electronics of a serious fisher nor their storage and fish holding capabilities. At a price point of $200k, your cost/lineal foot would equal that of a new Mainship trawler. But it's a gorgeous vessel and I'm an understated elegance sorta guy when you start talking pleasure boat.
