Notes:
Also advertised as the SOVEREIGN 23 ADVENTURE. (offered with the 2 layouts shown here).
At least one other interior layout was shown in Sovereign brochures for the 23/24.
Besides the 1' bowprit, the SOVEREIGN 23, & 24 appear similar other than an inboard engine offered for the 24. A version with a deeper keel (3.67') was also advertised.
SOVEREIGN 23,24,and 7M all share the same hull but with different decks, interior layouts, options etc. It is thought they all come from the same hull mold as the S2 7.0.
