Hidden quality

Ive come to realise that my lovely targa 33 is not big enough inside for how I want to use it.

So spent some time today looking at options and was surprised by what I saw.

Prestige 38s..very nice but come on..a shower curtain...only a size 8 woman could shower in it..not good.

F37..again very nice but too low on the inside helm...but of a silly design.

Sc35...looked like an IKEA catalogue inside. But the big wow came when the Mrs looked inside the kitchen drawers. The boat was immaculate with very low hours yet the kitchen draw runners were rusty...yes rust inside a 6 year old boat.

Got more to look at yet but so far I'm not selling yet.

Would you care to elaborate on this? Ive spent time on an F37 and never had an issue with the lower helm, plus if you include the 350/360/F36 it was one of boatings best sellers - I doubt there are more pocket FB cruisers made by anyone else

When I sat at the inside helm the roof was too low and I felt a bit claustrophobic. The boat itself was very nice and the best I saw today..but didn't jump out and say that it was the one.

dont forget when on the plane underway the boat is sitting at about 15degrees aft so the windscreen rises up to you. If they made it like that, underway you be struggling to see out

I've had to delay dinner to rush down and check my drawer runners
If the biggest problem you managed to find on a £130k+ boat is that £20 of drawer runner is rusty, then well done!

I'd agree that the SC35 interior is Ikea-ish, but I am told by several members of the younger generation that they think it is "modern" and "up to date"

The SC35 is a great boat. The interior works really well, and looks very contemporary 10 years on.
