The Triton 25, also called the Pearson 25, is an American trailerable sailboat, that was designed by Gary Mull and first built in 1984. The design is out of production.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
The boat was built by Pearson Yachts in the United States.[1] [5] [6]
The Triton 25 is a development of the US Yachts US 25 and the Buccaneer 250, with the Triton 25 actually built from tooling and molds purchased from US Yachts.[1] [5] [6]
The Pearson Yachts series of Triton boats were named for the Alberg Triton, which had been introduced in 1958.[1] [5] [6]
The Triton 25 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 37500NaN0 and carries 12500NaN0 of ballast.[1] [2] [5] [6]
The boat has a draft of 4.25feet with the standard keel and 3feet with the optional shoal draft keel.[1] [5] [6]
The boat is normally fitted with a small 4to outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.[1] [6]
The design has sleeping provisions for five people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin, a main cabin, port side, drop-down dinette table that forms a double berth and a starboard, aft quarter berth. The galley is located on the starboard side amidships and is equipped with a two-burner stove and a sink. The enclosed head is located just aft of the bow cabin on the port side. Cabin headroom is 660NaN0.[6]
The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 213 with a high of 213 and low of 213. It has a hull speed of 6.22NaN2.[2] [5] [6]
In a 2010 review Steve Henkel wrote, "A large foretriangle and a blade-like small mainsail gives the appearance of a fast racer, but in reality the boat does not stand out as a particularly fast boat ... The pinched bow gives too little room for a full V-berth; use it for small kids only."[6]
