Stretching a 32' Luhrs bridge and adding outboards

Hi and thank you for allowing me to join. I'm going to jump in with both feet with this question.
First let me prequalify myself, I am a 45 year veteran of the marine industry and have a varied back ground in all facets of the industry. I have pondered for awhile now extending a 32 Luhrs cockpit and adding a bracket or building it integral to the extension. I have owned a 32 open that was originally a gas powered boat that i converted to Cummins diesel. I very much like the ride of that boat and thought a outboard conversion would be a worthy project. I like the lines of the boat but not the short cockpit. I was thinking a 3ft cockpit extension excluding bracket or integral extension. The boat would undergo an interior transformation also, I draw inspiration from a vessel that was built from the ground up. That vessel is the 39' Rough Point, as with this boat I would add a lower station. I would defiantly seek a navel architect to assist in the proper design of the project. Ok any thoughts or input on a project like this. And finally I had seen years a go a 32 stretched to a 35 for sale in Maryland or Virginia, can't finding anything about it on the inter web.
Thank you and look forward to your comments.

 

I’ve stretched several boats, all were successful, but costly.
Best bang for your buck is to buy a boat that fits your needs.
