We had the same thoughts after living in a boat without a view. Lived in our nauticat for 18 months over three years now. Wonderful. Right now looking at the sights and sounds of Dartmouth and kingswear after 7 weeks of cruising to Helford and back. Room for both an Eberspacher and a multifuel stove (Faversham).
We're selling it as have another child on the way but intend to buy a smaller boat in a couple of years so we can have extended holidays afloat. But I'm sure we're going to lament the lack of view in the morning and evening.
We also get a very considerable amount of heat from greenhouse effect.
Rounding start point yesterday in big (ish) seas under reefed mizzen and jib we broke our speed record when we hit 8.5 knots.
Points to windward pretty well too.
So do consider a nauticat 38.
(Ours for sale at 50k if someone takes it at the end of October. )
