Thanks for the replies - after 24 hours research, and your advice - I'm now feeling a little better about what I have to decide. I think my "perfect" boat would be a Tradewinds 35, but at around the £60k mark, that will have to wait a while.
Looking at the Westrely Renown's, I am quite surprised that I think they might do the job very well!!! ;o) Good interior space and solid/reliable. Thanks David - I might go have a look at some of these this weekend!!! ;o)
