Expect to become mechanically inclined once you buy a boat. Most everything is easy to get to and easy to understand and expensive to have someone else do it for you. And they need work all the time. But they are fun as hell when they are even 75% of being "right".
And forget about the "want to haul ass" part when there is a new mom involved 
I know all about that first hand. If you decide you can live with nice and slow with lots of freeboard call me in a year. I'll make you a hell of a deal on the Montara.
You're selling the Wreidt John?
That boat is legend around here!
X2 on what GC says though. Although I can understand looking around, if you're not gonna buy til next year, why look now? Second, I would start looking HARD in September, near the end of the "season" (My season is 365, but most aren't). That's when the deals start really appearing normally. Although I have found smoking deals recently, Brad's got another one that caught my eye.........I need rehab, seriously......
