I''m in a similar position and have just returned from Sweden where I looked at a # of boats. They build great boats and the exchange rate makes them especially attractive. One boat that really stood out was the Najad 40. They are just being marketed in the US but are well known and highly regarded in Europe. Check their web site (www.najad.com) and ask for the catolog. For the money hnothing here come close and they sail well.
