The Merit 25 is a solidly built 25-foot sloop that seats five comfortably in a self-draining cockpit. Despite relatively simple control systems, the Merit has the durability and flexibility for comfortable, all-season sailing in the Bay Area, where typical wind speeds can range from near zero to above 25 knots.  Spinnaker’s Merits are rigged for sailing in good daytime visibility under a full main and working-size roller-furled jib. Most of the club’s Merits can carry spinnakers as well. All the mainsails can be reefed for winds above 18 or so knots. In strong winds, the boat can be sailed comfortably under reefed main and reduced or completely furled jib.
