Broker Comments – The Hustler 25.5 is a well regarded quarter ton racer cruiser. An excellent Holman & Pye design that couples great sea-keeping qualities with good performance. Fast, powerful and light with a bal/disp ratio of 49 and therefore stiff by modern standards. This one has been extensively refurbished and updated with state of the art electronics, probably the finest example in existence and well worth viewing.
