Broker's Comments

The Spring 25 is an inventive design with her wing keel and twin rudders and was the star of the TV series Howards Way.
She sails well and is a rewarding and responsive boat which is able to give a good account of herself if cruising or racing.
This boat has been well cared for by her owner who is an experienced yachtsman and she has had a number of upgrades over the years.
The accommodation comprises of a twin forward berth, 2 settee berths and the galley is to port. There is a chart table starboard and the heads are aft with a seperate double cabin aft.
This is a vessel that deserves to be viewed,
