What boat to get after an S23?

Do you not find the inconvenience of having to climb up steps through the windscreen on to a sloping foredeck a bit of a nuisance?

Yes, it is a pain in the bum. Mainly because when you are mooring with one other they are either at the front or back so can't get to the other end in time if things go wrong and you need to fend off.
 
Kwackers - Sealines don't have 'walk thru windscreens', they have walk-around side-decks, like was explaind above... you crazy old fool!! :D

Folks, the next move up will be it, no more changes. I'm serious when I say this, because where I use my boat (inland lake), anything bigger than 30ft is just un-practical. Friend of mine has a Zaffiro 34 and it's just too big for some of the piers on the lake, and it's a nightmare when he tries to tie up anywhere as other boats have to move etc.

A 28/29ft will do me nicely :)

Anyhow, sure, aren't we in the depths of recession, sure i've no money to fill the diesel tank!!
Niall, you've outgrown the confines of the Corrib! ;)

Galway bay, Arran Islands bekon! Lough Derg would be big enough for future Alt vessels (eg Fairline 50) :)

I've wandered Galway Bay/Roundstone/Aran Islands and down a bit further south than Cliffs of Moher on the last boat, so no probs there :) The S28 would be lovely on the bay, just a little more logistics involved in moving the boat.

A Farline 50 you say? Hmm, why stop there? Sunseeker Manhattan 60 I think :D :D
