Default Looking to upgrade

I am looking to upgrade to a 20,21 or 22 foot Z model Shabah 1998-2000. Really looking for the red hull with a sizeable motor and through hull exhaust. If anyone comes across one or any of you who own one want to sell please PM me.

Upgrade put on hold dang it. Remodeling project running a "bit" over budget.

    I know it's a bigger step up than you're looking for, but here's a red hull 98 z255 on ebay.

    Ah, remember you can never go too big. Always better to buy the largest boat and largest engine you can afford, as the inevitable "two-foot-itis" comes very quickly. 25' is a great size, especially if you plan on overnighting on it. It's very comfortable for two, and if you have kids, they'd probably fit in there comfortably too. Don't let the wife sway your decision too much, I made the mistake of showing my girlfriend a Z308 I was interested in, and now I get the "When are you going to buy that 30 footer?" about once a week.
