A unique opportunity to buy a rare Seaway 25 elite - one of the last to be produced.
This excellent racer/cruiser is better than others of a similar size eg Noelex 25 which has the same handicap. I've owned a Nolex and the Seaway 25 is superior ways including:
1. Flat foredeck
2. Adjustable back stay
3. More robust rigging, including two stays on each side of the boat
4. Simple outboard motor fitting at stern on the boat (unlike the Noelex which has a very awkward outboard well)
5. Sugar scoop stern
6. About half the price!
The only downside is that only a few were produced.
This Seaway comes with amazing features, including brand-new 15 hp 4 stroke mercury outboard, Raymarine autopilot, heavy and light genoas, and two other head sails and two spinnakers, porta potty small fridge and in-date flares and lifejackets. New VHF. IPad Air3 4G included on arm Solar panel, new engine battery plus domestic battery. Depth sounder. Ice Box.
Some wear and tear & the trailer is not registered. Optional mooring. Optional 15 2 stroke light motor.
