DESCRIPTION:
Your "Condo" on the Water Awaits!
We are delighted to offer our beloved 1979 O'Day 25 sailboat for sale, a true gem we affectionately call our "condo" on the water. This is our second O'Day, and we can personally attest to the incredible fiberglass construction of this vintage model – it truly can't be beat! You'll love the peace of mind knowing there's no wood in the hull to rot, making her a durable and reliable vessel for countless adventures on the water. She's perfect for lazy, long weekends, offering a serene escape and a unique way to experience the tranquility of the lake or a visit to the San Juan Islands.
Love-maintenance with upgrades this O'Day 25, ensuring she's ready to enjoy your next adventure.
- Engine: 2020 Suzuki 6 HP 4-stroke outboard (no mixing oil!) with a new motor cover. Reliable power for navigating waterways.
- Electrical System:
- New Battery & Solar Panel for battery upkeep, perfect for charging your electronics, interior and exterior lights (USB port available).
- Accessory dashboard with internal and external lighting.
- Working speakers and a vintage cassette tape player.
- Marine VHF radio for safety.
- Electrical fans for comfort.
- Sails:
- Crispy White Main Sail with sail covers. (4 years new)
- 4-year-old Jib with roller furling for easy handling.
- Spinnaker (Red and Gold striped) and spinnaker pole included. (Note: Spinnaker hardware replaced, needs installation while mast is down.)
- Original spare Main Sail stored below.
- Galley:
- Efficient Alcohol Stove (one burner) – the best we've encountered!
- Ample storage and navigation chambers.
- Built-in cooler for cold storage.
- Sink and mounted dish rack.
- Two hanging storage nets.
- Removable table for versatile dining or workspace.
- Helpful Note: We successfully utilize a dry washing system with vinegar solution and bring our drinking water, allowing us to camp out on the lake for extended periods.
Comfort & Practicality: Catalinas, just don't compare.
Sleeping Quarters: Your Cozy Retreat
- Forward Berth: Comfortable space for two people under 6 ft, with a hatch for fresh air.
- Side Cockpit Berth: Offers maximum storage, comfortably sleeps someone up to 6'4" (my husband's proof!).
- Center Bed: The removable table transforms with wood slats into an additional sleeping area.
Seating & Storage: Practical & Spacious
- Ample storage under each sofa bench, ideal for life jackets, extra camp chairs, and flotation devices.
- hatches on both sides under forward birth
- Deep cockpit storage and dedicated fuel tank storage.
Head: Privacy & Convenience
- Mirror vanity cabinet and sink.
- Porta Potty stand with a narrow closet behind it. (potty not included LOL)
- Privacy doors for a comfortable experience.
Recent Upgrades & Maintenance (Last Year): Well-Maintained & Ready
We've invested time and care into this boat, ensuring she’s ready for her next owner:
- Front water tank cleaned
- New Bilge Pump
- Marine Grade Stainless hinges installed on the anchor hatch.
- New Dyneema safety lines installed.
- Jib lines renewed and main halyard replaced.
- New paracord on flag hoists.
- Bottom was professionally washed and boat waxed last winter.
- Trailer bearings packed and new seals installed.
Moorage Opportunity & Community: A Welcoming Place
- Premium Moorage Spot! If you are local, you may assume our fantastic spot on A Dock, #45, with a lakefront view at Fern Ridge Reservoir, with the use of campground amenities until October 1st, when boats are pulled for the season. Imagine waking up to that view!
- Vibrant Sailing Community: You'll be part of a very friendly and avid sailing community. We've moored here for three seasons and cherished the camaraderie. (Note: You will need to re-queue for moorage the following April.)
- Local Vendor Recommendation: For launching and winter storage at a very reasonable fee, we highly recommend UnderWay LLC in Eugene – many of our sailing neighbors use their services.
Title for boat and trailer in hand. Current 2025 registration: This 1979 O'Day 25 isn't just a boat; it's an opportunity for relaxation, adventure, and creating lasting memories. She’s ready for her next owner to embark on countless enjoyable outings.
