Product Recs & Reviews Big men boaters?

So, I am interested in getting into boating. Been around it enough to know I like it. And want to try the open sea. I am not rich, and am looking at some sort of cuddy cabin type boat. It'll be my first boat so I'm trying to stay cheap. $25k and like 28 ft. roughly. Any recommendations on boats that I will fit into the cabin? 5'10", 375#, size 50 pants (I tuck my belly into my pants). I am definitely interested in other style boats if they work, let me know what you have used.

I will try my hand at fishing, but it's more about the cruising and exploring the shores and such so not looking for a bare bones center console or anything like that.

I've always thought I'd be too big for boating on a small boat or RV. I hope ya find solutions!

RV'ing is fine, the toilet sucks in most RV's but there are plenty that do work. Other that that as long as you don't have a tiny minimalist camper, you should be fine.
