35-37 ft. Day Sailor

[T34C]

OK, I'm sure this has come up before, but lets do it again anyway. I'm interested in a nice day sailor/weekender in the range of 34+ feet. (has to fit in a 40 ft. slip) Needs to be fast for weekend club racing, comfortable enough to take the kids out for the day or have guests aboard for the day. Sailing on Green Bay / Lake Michigan so needs to be weatherly, fast, able to short/single hand, and did I mention fast. I prefer more classic lines above the waterline (in case you didn't already know). Right now my favorite would probably be the Saber Spirit. What is yours????

Forgot, also needs wheel steering.

[sailingdog]

what is your budget???

[blt2ski]

M36, if $$ is not a part of it

Sabre if $$ are a bit more important

If money doesn't matter, the Hinckley Hood.

The budget for this is probably going to be around 250k, but for comparison sake factor that out. I like the AE 38 a lot but I think it is around 38' 6'' LOA and I have the problem of not being able to hangover a 40' slip. Might be cutting it close.

I know this one doesn't fit your requirements but she sure caught my eye at the boat show...sure you cant overhang by 9" and budget about another $250,000

TThe Morris M36 is above your budget but maybe you can find a slightly used one...sure is pretty!
