Fellow boaters,

New to the forum.....and hope to be here for a while - looking to transition from a Four Winns 28' cruiser to a 3500 open or 3600 Sovran (early 2000's) in time for the start of the 2018/2019 boating season.  In a separate post I solicited info on a downloadable manual for the 3600 Sovran to begin educating myself on it's mechanical and electrical systems.  

Last year I was dead-set on purchasing a mid 2000's Formula 34PC for use up here on the east coast (cruising/transient overnights up and down the coast between Portland ME and the Cape) but recently fell in love with Tiara, i.e. the 3500 Open and 3600 Sovran.  Both look like outstanding boats for our intended purpose but the Sovran looks like it's better suited for cruising and overnights given the cabin layout and cockpit configuration.

Curious, are there others on the forum who own either boat and use them for extended overnights (3-5 nights)?  It's just my wife and I so I'm thinking the amount of room available in the cabin (much more than the boat we have) would suffice for extended overnight cruising.  I know this is a fairly broad question but I'm interested in hearing the experiences others are having with these boats for this purpose.

Thanks!
