1989 Sea Ray 25 Da

Step aboard this 25-footer and it feels bigger than the tape measure suggests. The wide beam gives you a surprisingly stable platform at anchor, with enough cockpit depth to feel safe moving around underway. Many owners appreciate the generous side decks and sturdy bow rail when handling lines or dropping the hook. The cabin’s classic wood accents and opening ports create a cozy, ventilated retreat for overnighting, and storage is tucked into nearly every corner for gear and weekend provisions. At the helm, sightlines are excellent whether you’re running on plane or easing into a slip, and the hull’s proven design softens chop better than many newer, lighter boats in this size range.

This Sea Ray’s size and layout make it ideal for the varied conditions you’ll encounter here. The deep, comfortable cockpit handles lumpy afternoon water with confidence, yet the boat is still compact enough to tuck into smaller slips and quieter coves. Its moderate draft lets you explore shallower bays and inlets without constant depth anxiety, while the enclosed cabin and real galley turn spontaneous day trips into easy overnighters when the weather or mood changes. Fuel efficiency from the single engine is a plus on longer runs, and the sturdy construction is well-suited to frequent use in this region’s mix of calm mornings and breezier afternoons.
