I love the smaller boats like this. What they get into this 26ft thing amazes me!

Great tour Alex and a great little boat for the money. Can’t wait to see the sea trial of them both side by side?! 🤞🏼

🎉 Amazing and really ingenious. The second berth Is a great addiction. Alot of other mini yatch of this size only have one cabin..!

Nice tour as always and a nice little boat. But what's up with the reading lights above the feet? :P

Very nice boat. Would be great for the Pacific Northwest or Great Lakes.

I imagine the fixed table leg under the bed is for the dining table. So that it can be put away securely.

@alexsmith3945 4 ай бұрын

You're exactly right Nick. Checked with the builders after the event and it turns out the entire cockpit table fitting is stowed neatly away on rigid brackets so it doesn't rattle about underway.

That's a lot of boat for the money, that's the sort of price will bring more people into boating.

If you don't opt for the extra 30 liter drawer fridge, what is that space used for? Or is it dead space?

@matthewmartin1970 4 ай бұрын

I'm guessing that fixing under the bed is for storing the table.

@josephfarley9443 4 ай бұрын

Aquador 250 looks like a nice Express Cruiser. It would be helpful if the reviews had an approx purchase price. I'd also consider the Regal 26XO and the Crownline 280CRX, to name a few.

Seeing this impressive layout - cockpit and interior - makes me wonder what that hull looks like and how she performs at sea. Let's hope Alex gets a chance to give her a shakedown later this year.

@alexsmith3945 4 ай бұрын

Went to Norway a couple of months back for exactly that. In spite of the fact that it uses a voluminous hull with a relatively short waterline length and a single outboard, it performs just fine. Hits around 36-37 and runs in the low 20s at 2 litres per mile. Range is a bit short at 100 miles but that's what you get when you choose to prioritise living space over fuel capacity!

@jacktyler7599 4 ай бұрын

@@alexsmith3945 That's impressive....and encouraging. It suggests there is still some performance to be had, even in amazingly spacious interiors. Thanks for that, Alex.

Lol, have you heard of this thing called kids? If you're planning on taking friends with you to live on your boat you need a bigger one than 25ft...
