We replaced our Scarani Rio 26' with a Birchwood 25. Far more space inside, and would seat 6 outside (Which is where most Sports boats excel in fairness!) It sported two full size double beds with 6" deep cushions, a capacious head and Shower, plenty of storage too. The lazarette was also huge!

Yep, we used to have one too, brilliant boat.

Our Birchwood 25 was diesel powered. Dodgy fuel gauge though......

There is no denying that the Birchwood 25 is a popular boat, there are plenty of them about to prove this.
But that isn't what the OP is after. The OP already has a river boat and wants (well hopefully has subject to survey) something different to what he already has.

The S23 has two beds which will sleep 6fters. One permanent and one made up in the saloon. The shower room is perhaps a bit squeezed but in squeezing this up it has made the saloon bigger, comfortably seating four and six at a squeeze. The galley unusually for a smaller boat is very useable with two rings and a grill and plenty of storage space thanks to the fridge being in the cockpit. The cockpit comfortably seats six and although there is no lazerrette the anchor locker is huge and there is a decent storage area under the rear cockpit seat and a cupboard next to the gas locker.
You pay your money and take your choice. It would be boring if everyone wanted the same from a boat.
