There is an Ostkust like mine listed in the Wooden Boats For Sale site. I don't know much about it, just that it is still listed.

Here is my boat:

And here is the one listed on the WB site:

Same builder, I'd love to have a trailer like that.

If you're serious, here is a 30' Knarr - http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatFullDetails.jsp?boat_id=1856954&ybw=&units=Feet&currency=USD&access=Public&listing_id=59749&url=

If you're serious and want to spend a ton (far too much in my estimation, but we'll see what the market will bear), and are a bit more flexible in your specifications, there's this S&S design - http://www.yachtworld.com/core/listing/boatFullDetails.jsp?boat_id=1952530&ybw=&units=Feet&currency=USD&access=Public&listing_id=1877&url=

Also here - http://www.s-and-s-association.org/doc/48a7ddace6f12.pdf in .pdf format.

Finally, here is a 22 Square Meter in the Great Lakes region - http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1941/Rotholmems-22-Square-Meter-1933333/Milwaukee/WI/United-States

These things aren't that hard to find, especially with the internet. If you're hunting for a barn find or something that hasn't been listed yet, I suggest you talk with folks in your area who sail and/or work on the boats you like.

If you're just dreaming, that's fine to, most of us do too. Usually we're all happy with what we have, but there are so many beautiful boats, it's hard not to picture yourself at the tiller or wheel of something else once and a while.

You also might want to post a request for a 22 or a 30m² on this site's forum. http://www.squareskerryyachts.net/30m/index.html

I know of two 30's out there that need work and might be had, one in Michigan and one in the PNW.

You asked the same question on another thread just a few weeks ago and got forty responses. What's the point of start a new one? http://www.woodenboat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=89042
