Oz- Yes the rl24 was a good boat. I also had her for about 10 years. I sold her last year and bought a Catalina 22. The 22 with a pop top has a lot of room below. I got married and my wife is a fiddle player and now can play below deck at the marina .... The man that bought her docks Tarantella a short distance away.. it is his first boat and having fun with his two teen sons..

Great boats. Tons more room at the expense of a little perforformance. Our little swing keel 24 used to be able to beat the pants off the 28. But the space and comfort made it all worth it. Do you race the 24? There is a really good fleet in Vic and they often go interstate for nationals etc.

Hi, We own an RL24 in Australia and will have a 28 by the end of the year. Great boats.

Great little boats. I owned an RL24 for about ten years and loved it so much I had to buy a 28 as well. Hope you have it sailing now.
