Accommodation
The Ocqueteau 625 has an open plan wheelhouse and cabin with a V-shaped seating area forward which currently offers two single berths but could easily be modified to form a double, and a chemical toilet to starboard with privacy curtain. Helm to starboard with a dropdown seat, navigation equipment, and electrical distribution panel. Good stowage is provided beneath berths and in various lockers. The engine is easily accessed via a lifting cockpit cover and removable internal cover. In the wheelhouse the all-round visibility is excellent, with glass windscreens for improved durability and performance, and twin windscreen wipers. Sliding wheelhouse door to large aft cockpit, offering plenty of space for fishing or pleasant day cruising. A large central cockpit lazarette and aft locker provide ample storage for fenders, warps and other deck gear. Deck access is easy and safe thanks to side steps and excellent handrails, and a large offset walk-through transom makes berthing and getting on and off very easy.

Construction
Ocqueteau 625 built by Ocqueteau SA in 1999 for the 2000 model year. White GRP vacuum infusion moulded hull, superstructure, and decks with non-slip surfaces. Keel profile with protective skeg. Wheel steering to stainless steel rudder. Self-draining aft cockpit with good stowage. Steps up to side decks and walk-thru transom. Fixed trim tabs.
The clever usage of vacuum infusion allows a superior strength to weight ratio over more traditional construction techniques, resulting in improved efficiency, performance, and economy. As a direct result, Ocqueteau are able to use smaller engines to achieve the same speeds as many competitors and get surprising performance from their shaft-driven range, avoiding the need for more complicated and expensive to maintain sterndrive options.
