Ive grown up and owned Deep V Center consoles and never wanted anything else. Now that I have a 28 Albin ive fell in love with a keeled single screw diesel. My next boat (after daycare is over), will be a H&H 32' Osmond beal with some creature comforts for the wife and son for overnights.

32 H&H is a very good boat.
But if you want a great Sea boat with speed look into a 33 Flower’s.
Best Downeast boat in its size range in my opinion.
My son Leo & I are planning to move up to one in a year or 2 (after he graduates from Ma Maritime) from my 28 BHM.

It’s probably the biggest 28 Downeast but has its limitations.
Steve Law built 1 I know of as a center console..
Search 28 Seaworthy center console on the DEboat forum
