The Bayfield 25, introduced in 1975, represents the quintessential "pocket cruiser" of the 1970s Canadian boat-building boom. Designed by Ted Gozzard, the yacht was a deliberate departure from the stripped-out, performance-oriented designs of the era. Instead, Gozzard leaned into a "miniature ship" aesthetic, characterized by a clipper bow, a prominent bowsprit, and decorative trailboards. Built by Bayfield Boat Yard in Ontario, the 25 was an evolution of the earlier Bayfield 23, aimed at providing a more substantial cruising platform with full standing headroom—a rarity for a vessel of this length. The hull is a sturdy fiberglass layup with a full-length keel and a shallow draft of just under three feet, making it an ideal choice for gunkholing in the Great Lakes or the shallow reaches of the Chesapeake Bay.
