1975 Cape Dory 25. Classic George Stadel designed sloop. Full keel with 3’ draft, 4000lb. displacement, 1700lb ballast. Waterline length of 18’. Outboard well. One of 845 built and was the most popular Cape Dory sailboat. Solid, overbuilt fiberglass hull and a great, sea-kindly motion. Perfect for day sailing or weekend cruising. One has even crossed the Pacific Ocean!
Hull, spars, rigging all in good shape. Includes: 2023 Suzuki 6hp outboard with less than 5 hours. New Rocna 10 anchor with 30ft chain/250 ft rode. 2019 Downs (local Ipswich-based sailmaker) battened mainsail. Brand-new 2023 Downs 90% high-cut jib. 2022 running rigging. 2018 standing rigging. CDI FF4 roller furler. In addition to all the above, in 2023 the chainplates were replaced, mast light and VHF antenna rewired, 50watt solar panel added, all cabin lights replaced with LEDs, new mounted Standard Horizon DSC/AIS VHF, bilge drain added, teak cockpit combing and teak companionway hatch sliders repaired by Wise Marine in Essex.
Patience is in the water on a mooring in Salem Sound just off Salem Willows Yacht Club and ready to be sailed. I’ve put over $8k into the boat over the past three seasons not including the new outboard motor. She is a lovely boat and can easily be brought back to bristol with some bright work and new topside paint. I sadly just don’t have time to sail her much.
Asking $5000.
