The MacGregor 25 is an American trailerable sailboat, that was designed by Roger MacGregor and first built in 1973.[1][2]
Production
The boat was built by MacGregor Yacht Corporation in the United States between 1973 and 1987, but it is now out of production. During its 14-year production run 7000 examples were completed.[1][3]
Design
The MacGregor 25 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop masthead sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a fixed stub keel with a centerboard. It displaces 2,100 lb (953 kg) and carries 625 lb (283 kg) of ballast.[1]
Starting in 1980, a number of boats were built with a masthead sloop rig, and known as the MacGregor 25 MH.[4]
The boat has a draft of 5.67 ft (1.73 m) with the centreboard extended and 1.50 ft (0.46 m) with it retracted, allowing beaching or ground transportation on a trailer.[1]
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1]
The masthead rigged version has a PHRF racing average handicap of 231 with a high of 246 and low of 222. All models have a hull speed of 6.43 kn (11.91 km/h).[5][6]
