    Found one close.... http://www.setsail.com/dashew/do_paradigm.html
    Dashew FPB 83. Heavy scantlings, efficient hull, beautiful workmanship. Far out of my price range of course. And a metre too long, and a few inches too deep, for my cruising grounds. But this is the general concept that I have in mind, plus some nice varnished teak and/or mahogany.... I'm working on some Rhino sketches, will post when they're a bit more refined.

    Dreamboat

    My dream boat is a 16-22' sit down inside (like a 2.4 meter) sailboat with the selfrighting capability of the best designed keelboats that can fly like a Moth in as little as 5 knots wind and is as fast as a C Class Cat.
    You did say dreamboat.......

    I have difficulty in choosing between these two. I guess the ”little” one would be more easy to sail solo.:D

    VEGA & CHANDLER,

    My dream boat is the one I would like to have, but I cannot afford.
    My loved boat is my actual Banjer 37, Marie, and I hope she'll be for many years to come, at least while my children remain at home, and...
    My next boat is the one which will follow Marie: I will downsize, absolutely. No sails, no motorsailing, no fuss, little moneys, wonderful coastal chap-a-potting in Galicia, fishing and drinking warm spanish wines. Mainly alone or just with a good old friend.

    Designer of the chap-a-potter is Paul Gartside.
