Go to Yachtworld and search for the specific boat type and see what the price range is for this boat. You will also need a certified inspection. Lots of questions would come to mind. When was the last bottom job, any blisters in the fiberglass, what condition are the sails, rigging, motor, wiring...

A center cockpit 25' boat is pretty rare and that rear berth is going to suck. If you want a bay cruiser, look at a 25' Catalina with a rear entry transom (Sugar Scoop). You will enjoy a boat that you can get into and out of the water much more.

Edit: That boat is too big to trailer, so you will have to pay for a monthly boat slip also. So, $350-600 just to keep it floating all week so you can use it every other weekend.

I would not by a center cockpit boat less than 35 feet. 40 feet should be your magic number, because that is usually the jump in slip fee pricing.
