I think your idea is just grand. I think you need to refine it just a bit. I once read a passage in a book that I find holds true on most boats regarding the number of people. Two people is very good. Three people is excellent. Four people are three to many.

I have a very comfortable C&C 34+ which is in the 36'' range of boats. I can make due for about 10 days with very close friends. After that, I want to be alone. Consider a good 30 footer with one very good friend and plan your trip so you can take a break from each other. You can handle a 30 footer alone and the cost is alot less than 35''s
