Remarks:
Yachting Monthly described the Hustler 25.5 as "a well built, pretty and seaworthy cruiser-racer with a good turn of speed".
This example was fitted out by the present owner and has been lovingly cared for since launched in June 1979.
The boat was designed by Don Pye (of Holman & Pye and Oyster fame) to the IOR rule and Richard Matthews collected many trophies in the first boat called UFO.
This boat has also seen its fair share of club racing success and would make an ideal cruising boat for someone who also might want to participate in club racing.
