The Vancouver 25 is a recreational keelboat built in Taiwan under contract to the Vancouver 25 Yacht Company of Canada, starting in 1983. A total of 28 boats were completed, but it is now out of production.[1][2]
Designed by Robert B. Harris, the fibreglass hull has a raked stem with a bowsprit, a rounded transom, with a boomkin, keel-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel.[1][2] The design has a hull speed of 6.2 kn (11.5 km/h).[2]
It has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a straight settee in the main cabin and an aft cabin with a single berth on the starboard side. The galley is located on the starboard side amidships. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. A navigation station is beside the companionway steps, on the port side. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side and includes a stand-up shower.[2] Cabin headroom is 71 in (180 cm).[1]
It has a masthead sloop rig.
