Hey Indy-
I'm not sure what you're budget is but there are a lot of good options out there.
I'm up in your area, Rye NY, frequently, and from what I've seen a Fountain 31 would be a good option as well as a Scarab 302. Both good performers that can do double duty as fishing/family boats.

27 w/250EFI = 61
27 w/300XS = 65
Twins could be put on it but can't think of a single reason why that would be a good idea. Safety? One could get a sat phone and ERIB much cheaper. Speed? Never overcome the weight difference. Money? Double the cost of power, rigging, etc for twins over a single (duh... LOL!). Look cool? Look cooler with the extra $$ in your pocket.
