Boat Info

The 25 follows on from the highly successful 20ft Arvor released in Australia several years ago and now produced locally by Collins Marine. The 25 looks the goods for everything from day cruising to charter work, serious offshore fishing, scuba diving trips and family boating.

Designed to be left in the water, the Arvor 25 might also be considered one of the lowest-maintenance 25-footers on the market. The boat is powered by a shaft-driven diesel inboard, leaving little to go wrong below the waterline.

With a 4.2lt 220hp MerCruiser diesel, you can cruise from sun-up to sundown on significantly less than 100lt.

The wheelhouse is surrounded by a five-piece windscreen with tinted safety glass panels. It offers good views of the ocean and, via an aft window, you can see the cockpit.

The amenities centre contains a sink (linked to 100lt of pressurised water) and single-burner gas stove.

A very small moulded head hides behind the dash with just enough room to use the portable loo provided.

Throttle response could be described as lively or, perhaps, touch and go.

The boat cruises keenly, pulling speeds of around 23-24kt.
