This video caught my eye...

The Trusty T23, sort of a British take on the Rosborough.

Have a look...

That's a "chubby little bugger" compared to the Rosborough. 1 Foot wider and about 7 feet shorter (overall). We fit snugly in a 32 ft slip.

I like the bilge keels. Where I was born we had 30 ft tides and it can be along walk home with the rest of the town watching you from the harbor wall :-)

Full displacement vs semi for the RF = 7 Kts max vs 30Kts but look at the economy :thup :thup (as long as you are not bucking a 4 Kt + tide).

Nice boat but a bit cramped for me. Did you look at it's big brother ? THat is more like an RF equivalent but $$$$

I do like the looks and the bilge keels. It would be like a sail boat on a trailer though, high and mighty. Wonder if those bilges are ballasted?
