You inflate your wing to float your tanks and haul them up (or have your buddy help you haul them up) when you are in the boat already.

Well it's 5 feet longer than your spec, but I got to list it anyway. Best boat I've ever been diving from was one of these:

I Guess I would take a close look at Parker boats. They are used for diving here (in Alaska) and I took a trip to North Carolina this past summer and saw a lot being used around the Morehead City area. I'll be looking at one when my old Bayliner Trophy gives up the ghost.

Well I am a new diver, but recently I've done two boat dives actually four including the discover dives in PDC. Anyways the two I dove off of where I live in the GLouscter, Mass area, the baot that we used was excellent. It was betewwn 30 and 31 feet long, and made from a mold. It looks very similar to a average tye fishing boat.
This boat has a ramp/ladder at the aft of the boat, and is very user friendly. If I had the money I'd buy a boat like that without any hesitation.

My father-in-law just ordered an Island Hopper for diving the Keys.
I can hardly wait.

It depends on your needs. Boats are a compromise. If you get one that has everything you want, it's too expensive to run/maintain. Also, you need to consider the type of diving you will most often use it for. I do mainly wreck dives, so this is the boat of my dreams, toys included.terry908:
