Hey, I always back down the fairway and into my slip. I've even backed from the pumpout three fairways away into my slip. Sabres can back well if you keep your wits and you can even use the prop walk to advantage with experience.

Of the boats you named, I'd favor the Sabre...but then I'm not impartial. Any of the boats should serve for what you've described. Just make sure, whatever boat you choose, that you have it surveyed.

Happy hunting...MGM
