    It must be very hard to pick a favourite out of the hundreds of different fairly stereotypical monohull designs, so I shall chose the Powercat 525 - I think it would tick all the boxes, and have much better fuel economy than a similar size monohull.

    I have never been on one of these, but I have been out on a couple of very similar craft, and they had excellent seakeeping.

    These Aspen power cats look very neat as well - http://www.aspenpowercatamarans.com/pages/28AspenL_90.html

    Or a 27' World Cat?

    Glacier Bay cats have a good reputation as well - http://www.glacierbaycats.com/site/2665-powercatamaran-centerconsole/
