Broker's Comments

The Spring 25 is an innovative design and is the epitome of a cruiser racer. She can win regattas yet cruise to the Isles of Scilly and Ireland. This boat has done both.
She is easy to handle and rewarding to sail especially off wind. She has the advantage of a wing keel which adds to her stability in a seaway. She also only draws one metre and can dry out easily on drying moorings and sandy beaches. She comes with a set of drying out legs which help to protect her twin rudders when drying out.
She had a new mast fitted in 2015 and has a large spray hood which protects the crew when cruising. The engine runs well and she cruises happily at 6 knots.
The accommodation comprises of a double berth forward, 2 settee berths and a large aft cabin. The galley is to port with the chart table and heads opposite.
She has recently been antifouled and her hull painted. She is in a ready to go condition.
