Recommend a boat ?

[kissafish]

I'm after a small boat, I sold my 15ft one cus it was a bit too small.
I'm after one about 17/18ft with a cabin, maybe one with a sink + camp cooker in it
Just for family fishing trips and days out.
I was thinking along the lines of a Shetland 535 or 536.
Any other suggestions

Thanks for the tip Hammerhead
But where exactly is Coolock
Would travel for the right boat within reason 100 miles or so.
Is Coolock in or near Dublin

Hi ennagail24
Its something simular to my last boat (pilot 15)
Cathedral Hull or some would describe it as a Tri Hull.
I used my boat for sea angling and it was very stable even in choppy seas, I was told that it took up to a 40hp outboard but i used a mariner 25hp long shaft, plenty of power for such a small boat. OK for 2 anglers or 3 at most. There are a few for sale at http://www.boatsandoutboards.co.uk

Hi screeming reels
Checked out the Hardy Navigator 18
Nice boat but a bit too heavy for easy launching for 1 person with my 1.8lt car, After something lighter to tow and launch

I gave ddm marine a ring today and they were more than helpfull.
