So you want a 19 foot keelboat with standing headroom. And a diesel. And you want to live aboard? Good luck with
that.


He's not very tall. Only five foot six inches. He could stand up in the Nordica. Some Nordicas
came with diesels. Two people living aboard would be a problem.

Cheers,

I think he'd find the headroom is much lower, perhaps 4.5 feet. I
don't even think the Flicka has 5.5 feet. Now if he got a Dana, he'd
be all set.

However, these boats can be a bit misleading, since other than Length
on Deck they sometimes have the attributes of a larger boat. For
example, the Flicka has a displacement of 6000 lbs.
