So a big bowrider or pontoon to handle the crowd, then a smaller boat more suited to dragging kids around works really well. Just a thought.
I was leaning here too, or maybe just one smaller boat. I don't think you want to be piloting a boat for 12 all that often. A lot easier and less stressful (and cheaper!) to handle/dock 21-23'
