There is one for sale at Bridgemarsh Island called Tardis. Looks quite sleek,
As a 21, I think it is actually 23.....dunno anything else.

Um, the old man designed it. Cox insisted on twin keels, so he did some inclined foils and a fin option. I did a bit of the ergonomics on the deck moulding. Never got to sail one, but one did a transat. I gather they sail quite well and the asymetric keels worked fine, tho the fin was better.

It was 21ft.

So do you know anything about the Cox 22 motor sailer? I wanted to know whether the Swin ranger 22 was the same hull and if the boats are related.

PS. Sorry for the thread drift.

Thanks Taz, he says 23ft. I assume that includes the rudder. Looks a very nice example. Father liked performance boats, so within the constraints of the design brief, I would expect it to go well. Hence his fine tuning of the keels and the fin option, which Cox were not interested in, but did sell.

MrCramp, can't help there, I don't think father had much input in the 22, if any.
