The reason we sold our 4207 was because of the underpowering of it. You certainly do not want to be out with any weather happening; the thing can't get out of its own way.
Great condo on the water.
The boat needs at least a pair of 450hp diesels. I was in one that was repowered from the 3208 cats to 500hp cats. The thing was joy to pilot.

Yeah, as much as I like the boat, I might stay away. There are a couple nice Hatteras's in the area, downside being triple the price grrrrr... but beautiful.
Thank you for the input!
