    These are great little boats. The under table births often used for storage space... though its a great kids birth. for a 23' boat it has a nice little wet bath, nice small kitchen... etc.
    Its not a live-aboard but some people could. Its a nice weekend trawler.
    its 50k more to step up to the R-25, then another 50k to step up to the R-27... for the R27 it feels like all 4 feet extra went into the bathroom.
    So 23 is a great day cruiser... 27 good for longer trips... then you want to go to the 31 for liveaboard.

      There are acutally multiple definitions to the word, Roger. No fixed universal definition for all places and countries exist. The current "base line" definition is that it simply is a pleasure (non commercial) boat.

      Totally incorrect.

      Just because you believe there are / maybe various definitions used, doesn’t mean that it is correct.

      @@rogercroome1 I know the original definition and etymology inside and out Roger. It seems perhaps you dont? Otherwise you should know no current vessel in use satisfies your demand. Look it up.
      The word "Jacht" (sic) means "hunt", not "wind powered". I can only assume you or the ones who told you so dont speak a "germanic" language. I, on the other hand, do.
      Anyway, It just so happens ships for "hunting" were wind powered because there were no engines in existance all those hundreds of years ago, and the focus for the ship was on speed, to facilitate this "hunt". Power type is inconsequential since nothing else existed. Thus, since engine powered craft are faster, any ship can be a yacht.
      Lastly, please be a bit more humble of your own blind spots, since you are being rude and, ironically, the one misleading people.
      But I forgive you, no one is perfect. Now you know, though. Cheers.
