As I see it Sue...if you plan on dry sailing (.i.e. rig & launch each time
you sail) go with a crank up keel.
If you launch & retrieve once or twice a year and keep the boat on a
mooring..the keelboat would give you more floor room in the cabin and will
probably sail better.

I chose the easy to launch version.
