Small sailboat with regular marine head

I’m looking to pick up a small day cruiser type boat. Most ladies aren’t down with peeing overboard or in a portapotty so I’m looking for something that suits my group of friends.

I’m looking for something with a large cockpit and a marine head down below. It doesn’t need a ton of other space below. Anyone have any recommendations? I’ve been looking for a while. Yeah closest I’ve found is a Catalina 275 or Bente 24 though the latter isn’t available here.

My c&c 27 has a marine head. Good space for 1 or 2 people.

Re: Small sailboat with regular marine head

Many 25'-27' boats have Marine heads and can do a lot more than just day sail.

Cape Dory 25, 27, 28

Bristol 27

Albin Vega 27

Contessa 26 (at least 2 circumnavigations)

Pearson 26

Catalina 27

and here's list of some others

There's a Capri 26 at our marina. It's a beautiful little boat with a diesel also.

The owner is retired and had already owned two Cape Dorys. A 30 and a 31 I believe. He says he likes the Capri 26 best

Re: Small sailboat with regular marine head

Boats under 24' with a head, electrical & galley but no berths seems like an interesting, underserved market niche. As others have mentioned, most boats over 25' have a head.

Re: Small sailboat with regular marine head

The Capri I sailed had an outboard, really fun quick boat that could surprise people with what looks to be a beamy little cruiser.

any boat that has a head and a galley has at least one berth . There are so many out there its impossible to list them will. My islander bahama 24 was a great day sailor that also was a great ocean crosser went to Hawaii and back . Others have even circumnavigated the globe.
