Long keel yachts.

[Saltram31]

Saltram 31. 6ft2 headroom throughout. Quiet at anchor with no wave slap at the stern.No greyhound but predictable motion and comfortable at sea.

That Saltram 31 is pretty. I've only seen the 40 and 36(?).

 

[Kelpie]

Any advance on 31ft...?

Vega .. who wants to go backwards anyway

Only 9 31's were built. Mine was the 1st build.

Nice looking yacht. I though Nic 26s were kind of rare with only 64 built.

They are but strongly built and very seaworthy. I may be biased, of course.

Vancouver 27 or Victoria/Frances 26. Both beautiful but both on the pricey side for nice ones.

 

[Topcat47]

The Francis is a bit on the cosy side below, The Vancouver is a strong if a bit slow seaboat. plenty of realm below though, a nice place to be if you're waiting out a blow in harbour.

Many thanks for all the suggestions, plenty of research for me now. I'm sailing for the next few days and not sure about wi-fi at the other end. Anymore suggestions will be gratefully received!
