Thanks.
No not a narrowboat, originally I was going to be looking for a MOBO but the way fuel seems to be sky rocketing it would appear that the only way to go is a motor sailor. Not much experience of this but will be getting myself away on some courses first, (does seem like a lot of ropes though  ) While I can’t imagine that I will be going far to start with, as soon as I’m ready I would like to be able to poodle round the country a bit then make my way down to the med for a while.

Motor Sailers always seem so pretty to me, certainly I love the looks of the Fishers and there's a Dutch one who's name escapes me that actually motors along at 10 knots. However I think the all act like pigs when under sail. Slow cumbersome and awkward. That said, for long distance cruising where time is not of the essence then this is the way to go.
