The Lancer 25 PS (Powersailer) represents one of the most polarizing and innovative experiments in 1970s American yacht design. While the standard Lancer 25 was a traditional sloop designed by W. Shad Turner, the "PS" variant was a radical departure penned by naval architect Herb David. Launched during an era when the "motorsailer" moniker usually implied a heavy, slow-moving vessel, the 25 PS aimed for something entirely different: a sailboat capable of planing under power. By utilizing a flatter aft section and a lightweight hull, the 25 PS was designed to exceed 15 knots when paired with a sufficiently powerful outboard, effectively attempting to bridge the gap between a weekend trailer-sailer and a runabout.
