The Ericson 25, also called the Ericson 25 Mark I is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Bruce King as a cruiser and first built in 1973.[1][2][3]
The design was replaced in the company product line in 1978 by the Ericson 25+, also called the Ericson 25 Mark II.[1][3][4]
Production
The design was built by Ericson Yachts in the United States, from 1973 until 1978, but it is now out of production.[1][3][5]
Design
The Ericson 25 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, an angled transom, a transom-hung rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel or an optional keel and centerboard combination.[1][3]
A tall rig was also available, with a mast about Шаблон:Convert taller, intended for areas with lighter winds.[1]
The boat is normally fitted with a small inboard engine or a Шаблон:Convert outboard motor for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds Шаблон:Convert.[1][3]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settee quarter berths in the main cabin, around a drop-leaf table. The galley is located on both sides of the companionway ladder. The galley is equipped with a two-burner stove, an icebox and a sink. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the starboard side. Cabin headroom is Шаблон:Convert and the fresh water tank has a capacity of Шаблон:Convert. There is an anchor locker in the bow.[1][3]
For downwind sailing the design may be equipped with a spinnaker.[1]
The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 234 and a hull speed of Шаблон:Convert.[3]

Operational history
In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "when she came out in 1972, this vessel was seen as remarkably roomy for a 25-footer, as indeed she was ... The Ericson 25 Mk I ... is well-finished and nicely laid out for comfortable alongshore cruising, She is also designed to race, with testing done in the Davidson Laboratory at Stevens Institute and a hull rated as a quarter-tonner. Best features: She cleverly combines a high aspect ratio centerboard with a trunk almost totally beneath the cabin sole, eliminating the nuisance of a protruding trunk splitting the cabin in two. Her sales brochure touts her easy trailerability, and shows a photo of the boat on a four-wheel trailer, her 7,700 pounds of load towed by a Cadillac sedan—something that today no ordinary car, including a Cadillac, could come close to doing. Worst features: We could not come up with any significant negative features."[3]
