First time posting. I've been lurking for a week or so. Hello to all. I currently have a Polar 2300wa with an outboard. Last couple of years my wife and I(as well as friends and family) have really changed our boating style. I have really gotten away from fishing so much and more into cruising. We have been looking at the new 2012 Bayliner 285 cruiser. Does anyone here have one or something similar? Maybe some in and outs of making the switch? We are still in the question and answer state. We will use our current boat this year and towards the end of this year or beginning of next year we will pull the plug. Anyone have any idea of how this boat rides and handles? Does it pitch and roll or is it pretty stable? Mine has a pretty deep V and I believe it has a 24* deadrise so it rocks and rolls quite abit. Something the wife does not like too much. She wonders if the 285 will do the same. Also sitting up higher above the waterline will she feel the affects more. I don't believe it will due to the much lower 17* deadrise. Any help and insite is greatly appreciated.
