Hello fellow wind and wave enthusiasts! My name is Marco, I’m 56, and I’m new to this forum. I’m currently planning to purchase a Sportina 680 / Clever 23. Up until now, my experience has been limited to chartering sailboats between 36 and 42 feet, as well as using a 16-foot inflatable catamaran while on vacation. Now, I’m looking for something more comfortable—a boat that still sails well and can be launched from a trailer. I had initially set my sights on a Sun 2000, but then discovered that its interior headroom is only 1.28 meters, which is really quite insufficient. I haven’t been able to find a decent alternative to the Sportina/Clever.
Next, I’m planning to take a look at a Clever 23; the boat arrived from the Netherlands in 2022 and goes by the name “Angel”—perhaps someone here is familiar with it? It was built in 2000. The fact that there is a dedicated forum for this specific boat is, of course, a huge advantage. Best regards, Marco
