Hello all
My husband and I are looking to buy our first boat and would very much appreciate any opinions or thoughts anyone may have on which would be the best for us. Our basic needs are:
- Stable, seaworthy boat, capable in foul weather and forgiving for relative novices (we're more interested in being safe than speedy!)
- Can be handled comfortably by two people
- Can sleep 3-4
- Can dry out
- Budget: a whopping £4000 (and this is the top end) - we realise this is limiting things considerably, but it's unavoidable, and we think if we wait until we can afford a more expensive boat we may be waiting forever...
We've been looking into boats such as the Hurley 22, Crystal 23, Jaguar 22, Kingfisher 22, but don't really have much idea. Any ideas gratefully received. Many thanks.
