Nice 1981 Cape Dory 25 with 15 hp mercury outboard. Well, maintained, on a titled trailer. The Cape Dory 25 is one of the few trailerable sailboats that has real offshore capability. With a full keel, keel-hung rudder, solid hand laid fiberglass construction and a low center of gravity, people have crossed oceans on these. There are two versions of the CD25: an inboard version and an outboard version with the outboard located in a stern well. This is the outboard version. The motor is reported to run well. Outboard boats like this one have a larger cockpit, making them able to comfortably sail with 4-6 people aboard on day sails. Cape Dorys attention to detail and fantastic materials mean these boats age well if theyre cared for. This is an ideal boat for anyone who loves the concept of trailering a boat to destinations, but doesn't want to sacrifice big-water capability. 65 mph down Interstate 95 and then across to the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas is a reality.
