Don't believe everything you hear from a dealer. His job is to sell.

I would look at what is parked at the marina's and at the boat ramps.

For 4 persons, I would say the 150 or even 170 Montauk is a good choice.

Keep in mind, boats look big on a trailer but feel very small on the ocean.

Given the price of new boats, I strongly urge you to consider a late model used Boston Whaler. The depreciation hit leaving the dealer is huge.
