I started a thread a bit ago saying I wanted a RIB,however after some reflection we are now thinking of a trailer sailer.

Being based 2 hours from the Atlantic coast and 4 from the Med it seems like a better choice also I don't see the point of going for a blast while the thought of going for a days sailing holds much appeal and is another skill to learn.With school age children we can also tow any where in the med,get a ferry to the Balearics etc.only need to be able to do a couple of nights on board before coming back to shore to re-supply,empty the toilet

My experience stretches to dinghy sailing at school so need some proper lessons which I will investigate at the Southampton boat show as well as looking at boats out of my price range.
