There are grp merlins but they're newer so probably mor expensive.

With 18-19 stone a Scorpion would suit your weight.  You'd want one with a raking rig to let you depower as the wind builds but all of the newer boats have this and many older ones have been converted.   Long competitive life means you don't have to pay top money to get a competitive boat.   Not that I'm biased!

The MRX is a GRP version of a Merlin Canterbury tails i think ??  They dont have carbon rigs etc. and are very good but not really like a merlin Hannah i thiink they are a lot heavier.
