Broker's Comments

The Evolution 25 designed by Julian Everitt as a small family cruiser. The hull is the same as the proven Evolution 26 quarter tonner but the 25 has the cruising top providing great accommodation/headroom. The hull makes her a rewarding and responsive boat to sail. She has the benefit of a lifting keel, giving her the ability of drying out on sandy beaches and on moorings giving her a wider berthing choice.

This vessel requires a bit of a clean and polish but she is an ideal cruiser for some family cruising and fun around the buoys or lake and estuary sailing. Equipment fitted but not functional;
Stern light
VHF extension handset cable (handset checked OK)
port side cabin light cable fault
