thanks, it was roomy inside too due to a wide beam, no headroom or privacy of course.

also my current boat came from Burnham on Crouch, do you know it? Solar Eclipse

The first pic shows the Intro's beam off well!

It's very likely that I'll have seen Solar Eclipse around, of course, but I didn't know her owner (as far as I'm aware!).

She's looks like another boat that must offer quite satisfying performance.

owners name was David Elmer. But we got the boat via Clarke and Carter
 
Wow. Amazed how many boats some people have owned!
My list is pretty pathetic in contrast.
Topper
Swift 18
Hunter Horizon 21
ComPac 23D
Must admit the way Americans design a boat just seems to suit me. So much so I’m now hunting for a bigger ComPac or a Dana 24. Very rare in Europe though sadly.
 
Hurley 20
Hunter sonata lift keel. (very disappointing, the lift keel ruined the upwind performance)

Malbec 290
Varne 25 (follboat)
Mgc 27.
 
Minisail

4 successive 505’s, 2 new
Several Div 1 & 2 race sailboards
Hunter Formula 28 (running backstays)
Beneteau First Class Europe (running backstays)
Stephen Jones half tonner (running backstays)
Sigma 33 ( thank goodness no more running backstays)
Dehler 36db
J44 and Hunter 707 simultaneously
Dehler 35CWS
