JasonG,
We have a 2004 Rinker 232 Captiva and love it. It is our second Rinker (first was a '96 192 Captiva that we bought in '97 for $13,900 and sold in '03 for $10,500...in other words it held it's value pretty well). The 232 with a L.O.A. of 25'6" (including 2' swim platform) is a comfortable boat for the "big" lake. It is plenty deep and has great seating and storage. Performance with our fuel injected 5 liter (bravo III drive) is 53mph with two adults and a quarter tank of fuel (not bad considering the tank is on the large side for a boat this size...75 gallons). Rinker tends to offer more standard features than their competition. This adds value to the boating experience in my opinion.
Good luck in your search!
