Hmm...so I think I got very good motivator to put up our S27 for sale towards the end of this sailing season. We spent weekends on the water, as opposed day-sailing, so this might be good candidate.
I generally prefer modern designs as opposed to the "classics" and this one really stands out of the crowd, when compared to other vessels this size available on the market. The most unique design feature must be the reverse bow - the boat is very likely the very first trailerable cabin monohull with inverted bow on the market. Also check out massively asymmetrical companionway. It is actually a very good idea in terms of managing additional room for large head and improved (possibly) ergonomics of interior layout. If they did 246i performance variant with slightly taller mast and square head mainsail, it is going to nearly fly, especially when the Code 0 or another flying sail is up ;-) The more I look at the boat the more I like it. Hopefully it will be displayed at Toronto Boat Show next January.
Some specs:
Hull length: 24'-6"
Beam: 8'-4"
Headroom: >6'
Draft keel up: 13"
Draft keel down: 4'-8"
Displacement from: 4840lbs
Ballast: 1320 lbs
Sail area: 301.4 ft2
