35FT SPORTSCRUISER
One of the many platitudes bandied around about boating is “the smaller the boat, the more fun you have”. Unlike “a boat is a hole in the water into which you pour money”, it’s somewhat inaccurate, otherwise we’d all be charging about in Williams Minijets and giggling insanely. None the less, there is a faint ring of truth to it. I’ve known several long-term boaters who’ve worked their way up to large luxury motor yachts with hot and cold running crew, only to realise that the joy has diminished sufficiently that they’ve worked their way back down again. So what actually is the optimum size? I think the mid-30ft sportscruiser is in with a shout. Big enough to cross the Channel, small enough to single-hand, easy to slot into any marina and roomy enough for a week’s family cruise. Something, in fact, like one of these…
