Now located on our yard in Memphis, Tn. this Fresh Water only 1982 Hunter 25 can easily be seen and Rooke Sails can deliver the boat to you in a turnkey fashion depending upon where you are located. NADA shows this boat @ 12,280.00 to 10,720.00 which is what many loan institutions & USAA use for basing their loan value.
This boat is WELL PRICED at 7,900.00 considering all of the work that is included ! !
She includes most items appreciated by the new or experienced sailor with her knotmeter and depthmeter. Sails are the standard main and 110% jib but also includes a large 3/4 oz Drifter.
Only drawing 2' 11" and her shallow water ability she gives a good measure of safety compared to the deeper fin keel and yet still sails nicely. A fast 25 with a clean underbody you'll find her a blast to sail by yourself or with others. All safety gear included. Take a look at the photos and you will see an attractive boat inside and out.
We are near the first of 2022 and have completed a major West System blister repair job and are soon to install new Anti-fouling bottom paint complete. All this work is right at a 3,500.00 plus value. Additionally we have in the last 60 days wetsanded, buffed and starbrite polished the sides to have her in very desirable condition - - - heads above virtually any other Hunter 25 on the Market. Soon to include NEW Stripes on the sides, this Hunter 25 will be a pleasure to own and sail - - not work on.
Last but not least we have totally replaced the teak runners with new custom wood work for the sliding hatch and have painted the sliding hatch to have the entrance of the boat very desirable. Just look at the photos.
Her 9.9 Evinrude long shaft outboard delivers solid power to get you home when needed.
Please call for an appointment to see this nifty 25 and let's get you sailing ! ! She is a lot of Sailboat for the money and particularly with the New first class underbody work being complete. Great Starter boat and beyond ! !
So plan for a March/April delivery by putting a deposit on this attractive boat and be ready for the upcoming spring's sailing. We have our own equipment for delivering this boat so that we can give you a "turn key" delivery ready to go.
ITS YOUR MOVE ! !
