Bayliner 2859, Anything comparable?

[Bumperlt12]

We live in the northwest. All weather capability, fishing, people capacity, and economy are what we need. A nice sundancer or similar might work, but at the end of the day, a hard top with an AK bulkhead will last much, much longer than any mixture of fabric and clear plastic for weather resistance. We're not necessarily against a 2859 or Bayliner, just curious if there are other options in the same class, google has let me down a little, maybe i'm not using the right key words...

EDIT I should add we're looking for under 30k.

Bayliner 2858 is same size but different setup.The BBC may not as economical as you may like!

I've looked at a lot of those on the net, and I do like them. We are going to look at those as well as 2859's. A 2859 can be had for quite a bit cheaper than a 2858.

I guess my original research showing that the 2859 is a pretty unique layout is correct?
