What do you consider the 5 best pocket cruisers in the 16-19 foot
range?

Can I cheat a little bit and go up one foot?
You can't beat a Nordica 20. It's a go anywhere boat unlike the rest of
the
pocket cruisers. http://www.nordicaboats.com/html/nordica-20.html People
have sailed them around the world.....
Oh, how's Bobby?

Cheers,

That Nordica 20 looks like a real "popeye" boat. One thing I'm looking
for is a how well I can trailer it. That boat would not be allowed to
be stored at my home by the homeowners association. I'll take a closer
look at one. The fisherman's model reminds me of the African Queen.
Cool boats, though. Fixed keel is a must.

There are always the Cal 20s. They can be had for very little, fix up to be
nice boats, and have a 3-1/2' draft with a fixed keel.
