The Verl 790 is a robust, Britishbuilt GRP cruiser that emerged in the late 1970s as a competitive entry in the popular 26foot "pocket cruiser" market. Designed by the prolific Robert Tucker and manufactured by Verl Vale in Bristol, the boat was intended to bridge the gap between trailersailers and larger coastal cruisers. Characterized by a relatively high freeboard and a purposeful, wedgeshaped coachroof, the Verl 790 gained a reputation for offering more internal volume than many of its contemporaries, such as the Westerly Centaur or the Moody 27. While production numbers were more modest than those of the major UK yards, the boat remains a staple of the used market for sailors seeking a seaworthy, manageable vessel for coastal hops and crosschannel passages.
