Ted Brewer's boats are just beautiful. Before Ted had died, I had hired Ted to help me out with the conversion of a Canadian Navy Whaler to a motorsailor, the Nimble was used as the basis of the conversion. He was a wonderful man, not an ounce of pretension in his bones, easy to talk to. He mentioned he wished he could travel to see the boat when done, but he figured that wouldn't be possible. The boat is in the water, and now working on the interior.
That’s a great memory😀 Thank you for the comment. Be sure to subscribe and consider joining the Werkers 😁👍
This boat (and your vid) just makes me smile! Thank you!
Nice 👍😁 be sure to subscribe and spread the word
Talking about Nimble, if that trailer can truly do double axels I'm thoroughly impressed. A trailer that capable is surely worth the price tag alone.
Thanks for the comment
early in the vid I saw the price and thought it was very overpriced, but after seeing all the upkeep and upgrade on it, I realize at 25K, it's a steal.
You’ve got to know your market and this is a competitive price for the condition of the boat. 🤓That’s why I showed it. First in class 👍😁
Perfect boat, totally agree. Thanks for the content.
Thanks for the comment Paul!
My favorite small sailboat is the Folkboat. But I gotta say this one is tugging at my heart.
😀thanks for the comment
If I could afford it, I would buy it tomorrow. It's absolutely beautiful. I've been seeing a lot more people sailing around the world in boats this size. People have really figured out the old adage, "Go small, go now."
Right on. ATA. Minimum you could tow it or ship it where you needed to launch from 👍😁
😂Brilliant Salty Dawg! 🐙Sailing in “bad weather” is terrifying no matter what the weight of your boat 😂 hey I think your mom is calling you. Spaghetti is ready 🤡
@TOMVUTHEPIMP Sam Holmes sailed from California to Hawaii in a Ranger 23. Personally, I've always loved "adverse" weather. There's just something about being lost in the sound of a torrential downpour and merging with the water as you get soaked to the core. Growing up in Florida in the late 80s and early 90s really taught me to appreciate a good soaking. Sure, I busted some teeth in the ocean, but I've never been afraid of it.
🥸
Don’t get me started on the Sven Yrvind RUclips shell game. 🤨Nonsense! 🥸The fact that you think he’s some sort of sailing wizard tells me how little you know. There are many “salty dawgs” that have experience but all you have to do is watch his daily gibberish to see he’s playing the fantasy spectacle to get over on RUclips views. This is not real boat building nor boat restoration 👎
That boat is Gorgeous! It looks very rugged and well made.
Thanks for the comment 😁
I don't know anything about this subject but I like this boat
Welcome To the channel 😁
Saw one of these Nimble 25 at the Benjamins in the North Channel of Lake Huron..... Looked at it enviously from my Sandpiper 565 and have wanted one ever since. One of the most beautiful classic styles.
😄👍 thanks for the comment
I have a Brewer-designed Nimble Nomad. I love it!
Very cool! Thanks for the comment be sure to subscribe and spread the word about MotorCity Boat Werks👍😁
Being that far North, it would be tempting to sail through the Great Lakes up to Disko Bay then start heading back South. What a beautiful boat, thank you sir.
Thanks for the comment 😁👍
That is a proper boat right there. Great shippy lines. Nimble boats always have me tasting salt air just looking at them.
Thanks for the tour..

A beauty ! Great hull color . Perfect coastal cruiser .
👍😁
Been eyeing this on FB Marketplace for weeks. Soooo tempting 🥵
It’s a good one 👍😁
8:14 pm Wednesday 21 August 2024. Hi sir👋 ,thank you sharing your knowledge and experience to us. From Malaysia 🇲🇾
Hope one day i have sailboat 💪
Welcome Aboard 👍😁
Very beautiful, excellently maintained, very sturdy and capable boat! - a h26 sailor (still enjoying H16 too)
😁👍
Beautiful boat. My father had a Bruce Roberts 21' longboat for quite a while. Lots go good memories on it. He currently has an Albin 25 trawler. He is slowly doing the loop and enjoys day trip on a lake in NC.
Great boats and a great comment. Thanks 😎
Nice boat to make the Great Loop.
It ticks a lot of boxes and I think it’s pretty salty 😁👍
Great boat, I’ve had the pleasure of sailing on my friend’s and doing a little work on it.
😁
i always liked the nimble boats ,obvious high quality construction.
Exactly 👍😁
Yer Enthusiasm is Infectious and I might add, DANGEROUS! I keep hearing everyone who has said that a Boat is just a hole in the water you dump money into! BUT!!! I want one! lol!
Because to check out some of my other videos and subscribe to the channel 👍😁 thus not your ordinary boat restoration channel but something EXTRA special
I would love this. Another boat is on my list, but business comes first.
Right Scott ! this is why I’d didn’t buy the boat. What a great deal , but I already have several and need to stay focused. My is someone will see this and find the boat they need 😁
I've been watching this boat for a good year. Dreams of adventure, but just not the right time to buy for me. You have a great narration voice and persona. Ill be checking in time to time!
Thanks for the comments Jeff👍😁 Be sure to like and subscribe
Absolutely a fantastic pocket sail boat/ cruser!
Thanks for comment Malcolm😁
Wow... I love this boat... Such a classic look... great lines... It is a showpiece to be proud of...
I live in Clearwater Florida but I have never heard of this or seen one... Thank you so much for bringing it to my attention.
It's amazing... Pilot House... Shoal draft... Trailerable... Looks to be in immaculate condition...You now have a new subscriber to your channel...👍
Fantastic 😁 This is what I love to hear. Making friends and influencing people. Please help spread the word about the channel. And thanks for the comment 👍👍
That green is beautiful. Beautiful!
😁
That would be a GREAT Loop sailer dream. New York- Chicago- Mississippi River- Gulf of Mexico- Florida- East Coast 🇺🇸 USA 🇺🇸
Thanks for the comment😁
I concur. With the mast/tabernacle combination, outboard motor, and flat bottom it should have no problem navigating any part of the Mississippi and shallows. Fueling will be easy as it can use gasoline from anywhere. However to use anywhere? No way. Too light, no keel to speak of to keep it tracking well and tacking would be difficult as a solo sailor. There is not enough room for fuel & potable water storage or for refrigerated or frozen food. There is no survival gear or advanced electronics (chart plotter, AIS, etc.) evident and definitely no radar. How do you recharge the batteries? That v-berth has me feeling claustrophobic and I served on submarines in the Navy! The two things about her that are nice is the protected pilot house & helm and the bow thruster. Cannot picture her and crew making a long passage.
👍😁
June 16 Route to Cedar Key might involve parking Lot for either car or Boat. 500or 600 miles to Florida. Park Boats has a local stowage in Lil Washington. I like Canoeing; yet range for my age limited.
I see 👍😁
Amazing. Beautiful boat.
😁👍
Beautiful boat
It sure is!👍😁
Such a cool little boat!
😁👍
They were made in Odessa FL, in Pasco County. On the west side of Gunn Highway approaching from the south and just short of the old flea market. They used to sit the hull molds and hulls outside a pretty small shed at the side of the road! You may be confused with Compac yachts who made up to 28' boats in Largo/Clearwater Hurcules Avenue area.
Great info.Nimble yachts was founded in Clearwater Florida. 🐙
Wow what a lovely looker in side wow nice love it
👍😁
Beautiful boat, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the comment
That is a fantastic buy Nordic designed by Ted Brewer 25 grand doesn't get any better abd that cond8 is Bristol . Thanks fir showing if I wasn't 81 I'd be all over that.
Absolutely right Dave. This is a great deal for someone 👍😁
Absolutely , some kind of beautiful .
😁👍
Beautiful boat, great condition, some lucky person will get this!
😁thanks for the comment
great review and great dude telling us this story!
Hey thanks Tony 😁👍Welcome to the Boat Werks
The Nimble 25 is beautiful boat!
Thanks Thad 😁
I was fortunate enough to speak with Ted Brewer on a couple of occasions in his advanced years. His books should be in every sailor's library.
👍😁
I’ve seen a few of these boats when I lived in Catalina Island. I thought that they were pretty nice and practical.
Your wish is granted! It is pretty nice and it is practical 😁 Thanks for the comment
@@motorcityboatwerks I was using Siri and dictation and it didn’t quite come out right but I edited it saying that I thought they were pretty nice and practical boats lol this is back in 1977
👍😁
Absolutely beautiful boat.
Monty thanks for the comment 😁👍
Perfect boat for the great loop.
Yes indeed!👍😁
A very practical boat, I could live on that!
Thanks for the comment 😁
Definitely on my bucketlist to get a cruising sailor, wonder 32 as well as a ocean and inland waterway rower.
Excellent! Thanks for the comment👍😁
Good looking boat.
Thanks Dave👍😁
Amazing storytelling and salty little boat 👍
😁Thank you for the comment 👍
Great revue of an awesome boat
Thanks for the comment
25 ft boat can take you anywhere you want to go.
At least if you ask the Norwegian who sailed a 22 ft sailboat to Antarctica back in late 1990's.
I think it was in 98/99.
He called his boat "Berserk" and I met him by the coasts of Antarctica while sailing tourists from Argentina to this very isolated place.
Unfortunately I don't remember his name. A wild man, this Norwegian, following his dreams.

Excellent review and boat!

Beautiful, this has the only shortcoming I see on a lot of boats is the lack of dingy storage.
Hard to argue this is a shortcoming in a 25 foot boat. More like a design parameter 😂
@@motorcityboatwerks Not just on 25'ers, some 40'ers forget also.
🤓
A solid little boat that could go far!
👍😁
That is a beauty!
Thanks for the comment Vince 👍👍
Amazing shape after all these years. WOW.
👍😁
Motorsailers are my favorite style boat.
Mine too!
Beautiful vessel

😁👍
Thanks!
Thank you 😁👍
That’s a awesome boat , that’s my dream boat

If I owned this boat, she would quite possibly never see the ocean. With her shallow draft and trailer-ability, you could spend a lifetime exploring the lakes and waterways of America and with that little diesel stove you could include Canada and Alaska. Several lifetimes, actually.
Time for a small, diesel/multi-fuel outboard with with reduction box and a decent size prop. For a boat of this heft and windage, it’s low-end thrust you need to get you home against a stiff headwind.
Thanks for the comment
Superb summary of a classic boat. Do you know if it is still available?
👍The contact information is in the episode description. Be sure to contact owners directly
A real nice coastal boat for sure. Puget Sound and north to Alaska. Caribbean Gulf of Mexico, and East Coast. 😊😊😊
It’s perfect for a lot hose adventures 👍😁
Gorgeous

Thanks Vincent ! I’m working trust me 😁
I’m a new subscriber i like your video on this trailer boat I never considered a 25ft boat before i am from the uk 🇬🇧
Welcome to the channel, and thanks for the comment😁
Wow, seems like a fabulous deal for $25K! Sold already? GREAT BOAT!
That is a good deal. Not sure if it’s sold 👍😁
My time in blue water boating gave me the opinion that in some situations, small is better than big. I'd rather ride one swell than two or three at a time. A mountain of water is like a roller-coaster: up-n-over fun.
I once saw a pack of dolphins 🐬 sailing and I felt very salty. Could have been the spray in my eyes 😉 Thanks for the comment
Cool boat.

You like sailboats but you may have never heard of Ted Brewer.
Some Ford Mustang car lovers may also not know of Carrol Shelby, I currently own a Catalina 36 and hear other owners always are talking about some guy named Frank Butler. Sparkman and Stephens, Irwin, Perry are thrown around boat owners like they are somebodies. 😂😂😂😂😂
Nice video and nice boat. Thanks
🐙Thanks for the comment
Forgot Alberg. Lol
That’s why we talk about the boats in the bucket list 😉
She is a beauty
👍😁
Just took a newer, fiberglass, 32' Grand Banks from Ilwaco Wa. over the Columbia River bar on an outgoing tide earl in the morning to head up to Alaska to fish. , It's Hull speed is around 9 knots, GPS said otherwise thought on this scary trip, over 19 nmph almost bumping 20 knots.
Never again. Kudos to Grand Banks hull design and never underestimate the wrath of the ocean, no matter what boat.
Whoah! Great ride I bet! Thanks for the comment
I love it
😁
I'll Take It !!!
Excellent. Please contact the owner to pick up your purchase 👍😁
I will be looking for instructions on how to raise the sail. Beautiful boat if I had the skill to sail that thing I would buy it. it's beautiful
😁👍
Cool boat. I would trust it to sail from Boston to Portland maine, but not too much longer than that.
This boat does not have water time limit 😂🤣I’m sure you can go farther than that 😁
Always wanted one... Wonder what campgrounds w/ lakes would say if I brought it in as a RV??? lol
😁It’s actually a thing- smaller trailer sailors use campgrounds and trucks stops to overnight while they enjoy their composting toilets. 🤣😂
Barco maravilhoso, parabéns aos proprietários, adoraria possui-lo, mas infelizmente as leis de importação para o Brasil tornam o preço inviável.
👍😁
You need to read "Dove" by Robin L. Graham. He circumnavigated on a boat that I believe was shorter, with out any of today's modern electronics.

One of my favourite books by far. I came across an original National Geographic that had his first instalment in it. Absolutely amazing what this kid saw during his travels, way before the world got so small.
😁
I love this kind of motor sailor boat. It's unusual to see boats like that in Brazil.... Unfortunately. Thanks Joe
I just love the lines of these types of boats and I think the size is right 😁thanks for the comment
@@motorcityboatwerks I totally agree with you. The perfect size. Sorry to share it. My house was flooded and I lost everything in the ground floor, but the second floor is dry. Now I have a lot to do.
Ugh that’s unfortunate. 😕I feel confident something will present itself for you Jeferson. Chin up, drive on
How hard is it to stand up and fold down that mast? Is it a 1 person job? I think this is about the size I'd like as long as it was easily trailerable.
Stepping any mast is a challenge when you’re by yourself. 😁But with careful planning and some mechanical advantage it can be done safely and easily. Google: Gin Pole Step Mast. 👍😁In the mean time use it without the mast 😎
Yes it could but the sea motion would not make it as comfortable as a longer waterline length.
More weight in a keel boat equals a dampened boat motion
Thanks for the comment 😁👍
Lovely : )
Thanks for the comment Per👍😁
Dieses Boot ist nahezu einmalig seines Zustand her. Ein Kleinod was den Typ Boot betrifft.
Solches Boot ist nicht nur ein Boot sondern ein sogar Überlebens Habitat auf der See.
Super Video gute Erklärung so wie interessant.🌟
Thanks for the comment Richard 😁
@@motorcityboatwerks sehr gerne.

Nice boat..! But it depends of the weather and the quality of the crew..
