Your next boat

by Ianfs » 02 May 2016, 15:15

Is anyone contemplating what their next boat will be like?

Smaller, bigger, diesel, petrol, sail even?

I have spent quite a lot on the present boat so not thinking of changing any time soon.
But any thoughts of a change would be a little bigger.
Diesels are the only choice as far as I am concerned. We travel some reasonable distances and visit places where diesel is the only available fuel.

I'd like something along the lines of a Sundancer 265, with the biggest engine possible lol :)

Next size up to the boat that we currently have. Only 1 metre bigger but it will give us a separate heads and take a larger engine.

Unless my lottery numbers come up then I really fancy a nice Broom.

The only engine you need looks like this Image
