Location: Norwich, Ontario, Canada
A rare opportunity to own a distinctive, Canadian-built performance cruiser. This 2005 Doral 245 Phazer is reported to be one of only two production boats completed with unique copper-accented upholstery for display at the Toronto International Boat Show.
Powered by a single 375 HP MerCruiser 496 (8.1L) MAG with fewer than 250 hours, the boat combines strong performance with comfortable overnight accommodations. Power is delivered through a MerCruiser Bravo One sterndrive, complemented by through-hull exhaust for an unmistakable performance-boat sound.
The spacious cockpit is designed for entertaining, with a large U-shaped seating area, removable teak table and two swivel helm chairs with flip-up bolsters. The distinctive copper-accented upholstery remains in good condition, while snap-in marine carpeting completes the cockpit.
A large aft sun pad provides a generous place to relax and lifts easily on gas-assist struts for engine-compartment access. At the stern, the integrated swim platform includes a concealed boarding ladder and storage compartment. A transom-mounted stereo remote and cold-water shower add convenience when swimming or spending the day at anchor.
The port-side console is equipped with a lockable glovebox, sink and Clarion marine stereo. At the helm, the operator benefits from full instrumentation, trim-tab controls, a compass and digital depth gauge. Docking lights and a dedicated anchor locker are also included.
Below deck, the comfortable cuddy cabin features a V-berth, two individual seats with storage beneath, a spacious storage cubby large enough to accommodate a cooler, and a private head.
The boat includes a custom tandem-axle trailer with aluminum wheels and a spare tire, making it well suited to exploring different waterways or storing at home.
The exterior is receiving a complete professional detail in preparation for sale. Completed Aug 17/2026!
