Am seeking input and suggestions on best options for out next yacht!
Currently a Southerly 105 (early deck saloon), which has various plus and neg points:
+ Very light and spacious inside, great visibility, inside 2nd steering postion, very dry boat, roomy heads/shower full headroom except rear cabin (i'm 6'2") Lifting keel and 2nd steering pos. useful rather than essential (crusing W Scotland)
- sailing performance is not great; high freeboard/ windage, tricky to handle under power (big 2 blade)
Seeking a newer yacht (1995 -2003 ish) up to 38 ft that has most of + and removes the - factors.
from Bavaria to Malo, views please.
