What to buy with a budget of $20K

[scaly]

G'day all

Well, I'm looking to upgrade to a bigger unit and I need to get some posts up before I can put the current rig in the 4sale section so I thought I'd ask for opinions on whats around for $20K

Obviously looking for second hand as my current setup is 5.2m and I am thinking around the 5.5-6m mark
Main criteria is
fibreglass (I like my spine the shape it is :D)
Deep V (17 deg or more)
Cuddy or half cab (Need the protection over this way with the SouWesters)
and the ability to do 30knts in a 20knt seabreeze ;D

This is a pic of my current rig

Any ideas

Keep looking there for a few weeks and you will get the feel of what you want.
Some people just want to much and some just need to cash what they have.
Johny on the spot always gets the good deals its a matter of knowing it when you see it.
Cheers Kev, and the best of luck in your search. ;)

Picked up a Yalta Daycab 5.5 for $5250 localy. Needed some TLC, but is solid. T/T needs work, but motor seems alright so far. Thought at that Price, even if I needed a new motor, I'd still be ahead. I'm doing as much work on it myself, which saves heaps. Good luck in your hunt, keep your eyes and ears open.
