There is a Gilbert 25 in Toronto. It is Hot Tomale, built in the late 80''s and sailed out of Cleveland for a few years before appearing in Toronto as Nasty Rumours. Lately it has been raced in MORC Nationals in Maryland and Winter Nationals in Florida, as well as being a very winning boat on Lake Ontario. It sails out of the National Yacht Club in Toronto. The Boat was a one of a kind boat that looks quite like a miniature Andrews 30.

The only one I''ve seen is a 30'' that sailed out of Hamilton, Ont and is currently offered for sale at Port Dover, Ontario.
I believe it is a 1990. It has a fractional rig and a MASSIVE main. Just wondering where it might have been built.
