Yes for a few reasons, but mainly because I’m 6’ and the cabin is bearly that, so my feet hit the end of the original bed. Also it doesn’t get much warmth from the stove so better to have it as a galley. Theyre weird boats really. Quite awkward to fit out as the lines go everywhere. Nothing is square to anything and the engine is exactly where you don’t want it bang the middle of the living space. Plus the skeg is made of wood, which is a terrible idea! Quirky I think is the word. Handling is terrible too but I think that’s true of all these old holiday boats. Still it has its plus points, it’s cute and small enough to fit in places. It’s saved me a fortune in rent and it cost me very little.

Currently Bristol harbour. Quite a few of them here but mostly in the marina and they never leave! I always wondered how far you could feasibly get in one.

Hi Folks I hoping to connect with some knowledgable boat owners here. Im not actually a Broads goer but I have a passion for fixing up broads cruisers. I currently live aboard an ancient DC-30 that I rescued from scrap after it has been abandoned and heavily vandalised. I’m looking for my next bigger project, ideally a Caribbean 39 or similar, the worse condition the better as far as I’m concerned! If any of you know anything suitable festering away somewhere, please let me know:)
