Depends what you want to do and how much you want to spend. Nothing against them, but Hunters and Catalina's are mass production boats. Equipment and construction while not poor is nothing fancy. That's not to say they are cheap or 'bad', they are the Hyundai or Escorts.
With that said, many have every bell and whistle you could ask for, if you like condo's on water.
Figure out where you are going to keep it before you buy it, cost/foot and depth at the slip/mooring ball can limit your choice off the top.
If I was looking for a cruiser I could take out in the ocean I would pick an Alberg 30. I'm actually looking for one btw.
btw Here are a few good review sites
