Re: Pocket cruiser

Here's a lovely little C&C 27 available in Hamilton (cushions are incredibly ugly) but the rest of the boat looks sound:

And Grampian - solid sailers as well...

Good luck!

Or... https://www.kijiji.ca/v-sailboat/bar...5959?undefined

Very roomy for length.

Both have "stand up" heads aft. and aren't slugs if sailed properly.

This is very quick boat... https://www.kijiji.ca/v-sailboat/ham...3103?undefined ...I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I was in T.O. Hell, I tryed to buy one in T.O. and have it shipped to the west coast!
Thanks, I have been looking at that Tanzer. Appreciate the help!

I have a Cape Dory 28 and barely have enough room to lay stretched out in my V berth at 5' 11". When looking at small boats I would view the cabin settees or even the cabin floor as the sleeping area. I take off my settee cushions and put them on the cabin floor if its rolly. Thats the lowest point of the boat and central. It will have the least motion in all directions. The "V" in "V Berth stands for VOMIT.
I hadn't heard that..thank you for the information...my only experience with sleeping on a boat comes from a cruise ship.
