In great shape with no structural issues and no glaring asthetic issues. She would polish to shiny if one desired a shiny boat.
We recently cleaned her below the water however, she is due for bottom paint. I can include the antifouling necessary with the sale of the boat.
No trailer available.
In the water at the Port of Poulsbo.
From Olson25.org
"The Olson 25 was designed in 1984 by George Olson as a dry-sailable sport boat. A cross between the radical Olson 30 ultralight and the traditional designs of the day, the Olson 25 can perform better than cruising boats much larger, and yet is capable of comfortable family weekending. Manufactured by Pacific Boats and Ericson Yachts there were approximately 130 built."
