Suggest a monohull. If you dream of east coast sailing...probably a good idea to keep keep depth at 5.5ft. or less and mast height at 64 or less for the ICW. Light Long Island summer winds argue in favor of a light, easily powered hull rather than a heavily built offshore cruiser. This does not mean POORLY built...just using modern construction techniques and not getting an over built boat for conditions you will never see.
