I’ve looked at some of the common boats such as Sea Ray, Chapparal and Bayliner, but I am looking for cruisers that has larger kitchens and outboard engines. There is so many types of boats out there, where do I start my search? It MUST be a full outboard engine, not inboard/outboard… the reason for this is ease of maintenance. As far as size goes, I am looking for around 27-31′. The thing is, I only need a 27′ boat, but I want a big kitchen. Do any manufacturers put a large kitchen in a 27′ size boat? Thank you. If someone can help me with this I will not only make it the best answer but I will be thankful forever.
One of the boats I found that I really like is the Pursuit OS 285 and 315. Both look well built and have outboard engines. However, they both seem geared towards fishing, and also the kitchens are very small.
Google ‘Used Boats for sale’ and you will find a number of sights. Do a search specifying outboard power and cruiser. You might also consider a house boat. Some of them can take a lot of outboard power. There was even a period when they engaged in offshore racing. Catamaran Cruisers are fast, stable and fuel efficient.
