Hi everyone,
I am in the process of deciding on a trailerable, comfortable cruising
yacht
(ca 23 ft) and found the Vagabond 23 of Jacques Mertens and the Roberts
246
of Bruce Roberts.

I'm biased. I sell several of my designs on Jacques' site and receive
royalties from the sales.

But I also happen to think Jacques' technical support is first rate. Lots
of very quick responses to builder's questions. I think that sets them
apart.

I think that Bruce Roberts designs ugly boats. I have heard (2nd hand) that
his plans leave a lot to the builder's imagination i.e. they are not that
complete if you are a beginning builder.
