Theo Stocker takes a fist look at the Pointer 25, a Dutch coastal cruiser that should offer plenty of cruising enjoyment in a 25ft package

Product Overview

The Pointer 25 has also been around since 2015, but has proved perennially popular for the Dutch builder Jachtweerf Heeg, particularly on the sheltered waters of the Netherlands. As with other mini cruisers, their size and fit out limits their RCD rating to Category B (Force 8, Offshore) or C (Force 6, Coastal), but few would consider an ocean crossing in a 25-footer these days.

The Pointer 25 is Category B, and has been designed around seaworthiness and enjoyable sailing. The Van de Stadt designed hull has a long waterline length and a reasonable beam carried aft, but rounded sections and a moderate rocker suggest a seakindly motion.

Fit out below is fairly basic, and is designed to be modular. A V-berth double forward and two singles aft make up four berths. A moulded liner keeps the boat clean and neat, if a little basic below. There’s a small galley forward to port, and a locker hiding the heads or chemical toilet to starboard – there’s no option for an enclosed heads.

Wires strung along the inside of the hull just below the deck allow stowage bags to be hung throughout the boat, offering a flexible and light weight stowage solution, though there isn’t stowage for much more than weekending. Headheight is limited to sitting, but this does allow the freeboard and coach roof to remain low and elegant.

You can specify a 4kW electric motor or the standard 10hp Yanmar diesel inboard.

On deck, a drop-down transom bathing platform encloses a large cockpit with full length bench seats, tiller steering and midships mainsheet anchor point. A sprayhood is an option, as is deckhardware for furling downwind sails, and either a genoa with cars or a self-tacking jib. The keel is a fairly shallow 1.10m with a lead bulb and and a generous 47% ballast/displacement ration, but a deeper 1.5m keel or shallower 0.80m keel with twin rudders are options; there’s no option for a lifting keel.

Attractive lines, real sailing pedigree and a simple layout on deck and below make this a boat that should be fun and easy to use.

NOW IN THE UK, THE AWARD WINNING POINTER 25!

Designed by the renowned Van de Stadt Design team, the POINTER 25 is built in The Netherlands by the Jachtwerf Heeg BV. Van de Stadt were asked to come up with an elegant and modular yacht which attracts sporty sailors who are looking for an overnight stay aboard. Their design of the new 25 foot POINTER immediately won both plaudits and awards, including the Dutch Yacht Of The Year!

DESIGNED AROUND SAILING ENJOYMENT

A quick look at the sleek contemporary hull lines of the POINTER 25 tell you that this small yacht is about real sailing pleasure. The low freeboard and low weight combine to create outstanding performance under sail. A fat head mainsail, a jib with an under-deck furler and a pre balanced rudder help to produce the complete enjoyment package. The fin keel with bulb carries a generous amount of ballast, making the POINTER 25 a very stiff boat with go anywhere appeal – even off-shore cruising thanks to a CE category of ‘B’.  Yet, two different keel options, a shoal draft 1.1m and a deeper 1.5m draft, enable this yacht to be customised to your sailing area. Other options include a self-tacking jib for shorthanded sailing as well as a range of easily manageable downwind sails flown off a purpose fitted bowsprit.

COMPACT COMFORT

Below deck the POINTER 25 is appointed as a real sailer’s boat. No stateroom accomodation here. Instead, the yacht offers a compact yet comfortable cabin with plenty of natural light from the large windows. A good size (2.1m long) v-berth and two (2.1m) saloonberths can easily accomodate a family of 4.  The cabin can be customised in a variety of  interior colour patterns. Other options to enhance comfort below deck include a galley unit, a marine heads, clever storage solutions and, even cabin heating.

DESIGN YOUR OWN POINTER 25

With such an array of options to choose from, including  inboard diesel or electric propulsion, a swim platform and a range of boom tents, this boat can be made to suit a variety of tastes. This is why POINTER YACHTS have a clever design tool on their website – use it to construct your perfect POINTER 25. If you have any questions about the POINTER 25 or you wish to arrange a test sail then contact us at The Small Yacht Company, UK Dealer, Pointer Yachts.

    The POINTER 25 is both elegant and a trailerable sailboat that attracts sporty sailors just as much as it does with those looking for an overnight stay aboard in comfort. The basis for the POINTER 25 is real sailing pleasure combined with the luxury of a cabin sailer.

  4. POINTER 25 - sailboatdata

    Designed to determine if a boat has blue water capability. The CSF compares beam with displacement since excess beam contributes to capsize and heavy displacement reduces capsize vulnerability. The boat is better suited for ocean passages (vs coastal cruising) if the result of the calculation is 2.0 or less. The lower the better.
