Project boat wanted

I am in the market for a project. preferably 5.5m +, up to 7m.

My preference would be something which is tired and untidy rather than structural work needed, with or without engine and/or electronics.

Intended use is primarily a safety boat for sailing events on the sea or larger inland water (Lake Garda this year for example), plus then some family coastal cruising/bay hopping.

At this point I am not looking to cross the channel, but making it to the IoW on a calm day would be a nice target as experience improves.

Does anyone have anything or have any advice on what to look for and where to look?

How about this one?

It's nothing to do with me. I saw it whilst browsing.

Hi All.

Thank you for all the DMs, I am now sorted and looking forward to going and picking one up on the 1st Feb.

I’ll post some pics and no doubt be asking for advice as I progress.

Toby
