I am looking for a used boat between $9,000 to $19,000. I have two children under 8 yrs old. I love the open bow boats, but I'm concerned about the kids being in sun without much protection. I do like the idea of a cuddy cabin however I'm concered about useable space for fishing/waterskiing/and the amt. of people you are able to carry seems to be at least 2 to 3 less with the cuddy. I am just curious how much coverage the bimi covers gives. I'm basically looking for something in the 28ft to 23ft. range. I found three boats that I like I am just really indecisive on cuddy/open bow.
