Description
NEW PRICE!
Owner wants his boat to be sold to someone and not go to ruin. Is willing to sell at $5000.00 as she sits.
The Olson 25 was designed in 1984 by George Olson as a dry-sailable sport boat. A cross between the radical Olson 30 ultralight and the traditional designs of the day, the Olson 25 can perform better than cruising boats much larger, and yet is capable of comfortable family weekending. This one was manufactured by Ericson Yachts (earlier models were built by Pacific Boats). In total there were approximately 130 built.
Fiberglass sloop, light gray hull and deck, masthead rig, single spreader.
