Sounds reasonable to me. Although 27 on a trailer is about as big as you're gonna find, and they'll be rare. If you intend to trailer it, you might want to go a bit smaller, or plan on building/buying a custom trailer.

Here's one

Re: Wanted cruiser sailboat

They are more common in the US than you would think. I don't remember the actual numbers, but Westerly imported more of these to the US then they sold abroad!
