    Hi
    I’m looking for a good open day sailor around 18- 20 ft
    The Hawk 20 is perfect but very hard to find one
    A centreboard boat with decent performance would be great.
    Wayfarer is a bit too small and Drascombe lugger too slow
    If you know of any options that would be great

    I should add that I would like to have it on a swinging mooring Blessington Lake most of the summer and possibly trail it to the Shannon for a few days also.
    And of course for sale in Ireland as it’s too much grief going beyond Uk and that’s too expensive now.

    I'd suggest a Squib but it has a fixed keel.

    A squib would be great but as you say the keel is the problem
