Frers 41 vs Sun Legend

I''ve been looking at a Sun Legende on Yachtworld which has been there for some time and I asked for some input here. Jeff H, if Iunderstood correctly, considered this design to be a bit "whippy". I took that to mean big rig, fin keel would make for a lot of work. I''m also considering Peterson 44, Bristol 41.1, Crealock 37, sabres and Tartans of similiar size. I''m trying to keep purchase price to $100,000 or less.
I''ve owned power and sail up to 34'' and presently have an Ensign which I plan to enjoy for a year ot two while I select that "perfect" retirement sailboat. We live in New England and will probably spend most time coastal cruising but want a boat that can go anywhere.
Thanks for any help here. John Gov.
