Neil, what sort of price range are you thinking of. I can probably comment on Snapdragons, but there is a lot of choice in the range you are looking at. I'm content that at this price I'll be getting something fairly basic, but don't want to buy into a liability or a deathtrap! Any advice much appreciated. Regards Neil.

What are you needs and what are you looking to use the boat for? There are loads of options in your price range.

PeteCooper Active member. I thought that the form of this kind of reply should finish " I'd like to keep running costs down who doesn't so I believe an outboard-engined yacht would be preferable. Whilst I know a fin keel typically gives better performance, I may end up transporting this yacht by road so I am erring towards bilge or lifting keel. To date my research has all been Internet, ie what is available at what price, although I hope to start phyiscally looking shortly.

The yachts that are available in the right price range so far are: Hurley 22, Foxcub, Snapdragon, Lesiure 23, Prelude, Kingfisher Any other suggestions much appreciated - all the more so if you know of a suitable yacht for sale in the eastern Solent! Joined 16 May Messages 7, I used to have a Hurley 22 bilge keeler.

It was a great boat sailed well very well built etc. A lot depends on the mooring you get. Drying moorings are cheapest. If you are interested in a lifting keel the Anderson 22 is a good boat. Look in my blog for pictures of ours. Theres lots of small boats for sale so take your time and get a good one for your money. They are roomy, safe and comfortable and capable of handling anything the Solent can throw at them.

I would certainly be looking at Snapdragons or Leisures. They are aging now but usually well looked after by a succession of owners who only sell them to move up in size. Both pretty well bomb proof, should be a choice of several in the price range and plenty of people around with knowledge of them who could offer advice on specifics.

Hunter Medina, Sonata lift keel or Duette bilge , may be a bit racy but plenty of people cruise them and trail them, almost all out board powered and many have trailers. Quite a few examples in your price range. All sail very well. We started in the Medina and really enjoyed it.

We started with a Snapdragon actually a Despite what we were told, she did not sail sideways and we sailed most of the time. Even made it to Weymouth on a couple of occassions. We only sold her 'cos we are both over 6 feet tall and felt we could now handle something bigger but we were sorry to part with her.

Stemar Well-known member. It's true that beating against wind and tide is a less than heartwarming experience, but that's what the donk's for. If the tide's going the right way, we'll tack for as long as it's fun and when the Admiral gets tired, we'll turn the engine on.

Off the wind she goes very nicely. He did get past us, but it took from Newton Creek to Gurnard Bay. I love my Snappy for what she is: a tough, roomy cruiser that can take the ground and will get me home long after I'm wishing I'd never set out, and accept what she isn't: a performance racer for blatting round the cans and ignoring the Colregs 'cos I'm racing.

Whatever you go for, unless weight for towing is a serious issue, try and get an inboard engine. Boats with outboards tend to be cheaper, but you'l find out why the first time you try to motor anywhere in a Snapdragon 600 Sailing Boat Update chop. Boats with outboards are cheaper because outboards are cheaper than inboards and while a transom-mounted one is not perhaps best-placed in a chop, if you have a long-shaft in a well like the Hurley and many others the prop is not in a significantly worse position than on many boats with inboards.

Rabbie New member. A lot of emphasis on the ' probably ' there -like the lager! As a Snappie owner with hundreds of miles under my keel I entirely disagree. Try a sail in one. Stemar - Well said. I think a Hurley 22 or the Hunter Duette would be ideal for you. I stand by what I said about the Snapdragon's sailing capability.

I am sure they are safe and have looked after their owners, but I would be interested to see if there was a boat that is slower than a Snapdragon, particularly upwind. Actually I have now just had a quick check on Portsmouth Yardstick numbers and they suggest the Snapdragon 24 to be the third slowest boat ever measured - just beating the Leisure 20 and Alacrity MKII. Maybe I am old fashioned but if you are buying a sailing boat you want it to sail. Achillesheel Well-known member.

Would second the Achilles Great boat to sail, looks good, outboard in well, fin, triple or bilge keel. Excellent value for money. Joined 10 Jan Messages 3. Surely if you want speed you buy a speed boat, I am always a little worried about people who have to race every where. I really dont see alot of difference between going at 7 knots or going at 5 knots.

I have Fast Sailing Boat 600 an invader which I would take out and trust in any weather. My invader seems to keep going when I see expensive yachts broaching, on windy days, because the in experienced other guy has got to much sail up so he can get that extra knot MoodySabre Well-known member. I started with a Snapdragon OK it didn't fly to windward but it was solid. An insurance survey after 36 years of service recommended changing the original U-bolts on the rigging "just in case there is a hidden problem".

That was it. We did and there wasn't a problem. Joined 10 Mar Messages 1. Jemima Puddleduck Member. Joined 10 Feb Messages 34 Location Seaford.

Something safe capable of crossing the Channel , comfortable and relatively inexpensive for the weekends to get my Mrs acquainted to the idea of longer stays on the boat. So a twin or swing keel would be preferable, with a biased towards twin keel as not to sacrifice room. A rather long wish list You must log in or register to reply here.
