Your comment shows the follies of relying raw data. Reducing this short list--which is really an attempt at an objective starting point-requires a boat-by-boat review, begins with groundtruthing the basic numbers, and moves on to build, availability, and idosyncracies. The final pick still needs sea trials and fit the owners lifestyle and local waters--but may be from a stable of good boats, at least. I guess that was the objective. so many boats, so much information, so little time on the water!
