Wondering about a boat...

[The Moose]

As the title says, am wondering about a boat.

Would like something that is trailer-able if necessary.

Ideally sleep 4 so can go away with friends etc, however could make do with only 2.

Prefer outboard engine as my preconception is that it's easier/cheaper than an inboard/outboard.

Suggestions on a postcard please chaps and chapesses

I'm not interested in being a raggie

The outboard I've not got my heart set on, it just seemed like a reasonable idea - am open to suggestions

No doubt I'll end up with something totally different!

Can I just check as well reading back the OP if you meant by trailerable if necessary did you mean you'd be keeping it in the water? If that's the case it opens up a lot more possibilities as pretty much any boat can be trailered somehow (not necessarily with your average car/van though)

What budget were you thinking of?

I'd hope to be able to tow it with the LandCruiser

Would keep it either in the water or dry stack I expect.

Already done my B+E for racing

Am open to suggestions all round really. Looking for some suggestions to get started and researching etc.

Excellent, that takes weight juggling out of the equation then.

Budget? Even a cluesy? Otherwise I'm gonna start with Riva and work down to Binliner.

Most likely not a Riva!

I did consider a Monterey last year but I never got around to looking at the boat seriously...and then it sold!

I guess I'd look circa £20-£25k, however can increase (and of course decrease!!) accordingly.

That's not a real Landcruiser either!!
