It's kind of amusing that so many of us have so many differing definitions of what a "sedan" is and isn't. My understanding matches that of Nomad Willy--a trawler with no separated or raised pilothouse, flybridge or not. But I may be wrong. It's happened before!
We're flirting with the idea of moving up in size a little. As an old Downeaster mostly accustomed to lobster hulls, pilot houses have always seemed mostly unnecessary on smallish coastal cruising boats, sort of a nod to much larger, passage makers.
We've looked at Mainship 34's and Island Gypsies and the like. The Mainship has our favorite layout with a down galley and tons of salon space but we're concerned about the overall build quality. Is this a legitimate concern?
