Plenty of used cruisers around. Unless cash is really tight, I would go a little bigger, maybe 28'. I started my overnighting with a 30' and it was a good fit for two of us. With four it would start to get crowded. A 24' seems like it would be tight.

Then again model year is important, older boats seem to have more space for the same size. Later models tend to cheat a little, counting swim platforms as length, for example.
