And one more thing, size shouldn't matter. You want a strong hull that has cover at the front to keep you dry and a reliable powerful engine to bring you home quick if the weather turns.

Towing shouldn't be an issue. A 4L Falcon will tow a 6m boat without any problems whatsoever.
Storage as well, you can store it at a marina for about $350-$400 per meter per year

I've just sold my 14ft boat and I am in the market for a bigger one that I can take off-shore too. As I don't want to pay cash for a high value depreciating asset, I'll have to finance it.

Actually I've spoken to Yaringa marina and I reckon $2100 for a 6m boat is a VERY good deal. It ends up being $40 per week. If you go out on the water twice a week, thats $20 per trip. Considering boat ramp fees are around $15/day, as well as the fact that you waste more petrol towing the boat from ...
