We just purchased our first keelboat, looking for the camper enclosure for a C25.

Welcome to the forum Michael.

It would be a good idea for you to update your profile providing more info on your self, your boat, and your sailing venues. Also, if you have not already, add your boat to the owners list (see the link in the list on the left.)

Thanks Paul, I will start hauting these pages and introduce myself better when time permits. We purchased the boat last week, painted bottom and launched this week, and start the renovation next week.

I have one but since I had back surgery three days ago I can't get it out or clean it up and it's been put up for awhile.

While you are looking for a Catalina canvas pop-top cover, you can also use a 6x8 or 8x8 tarp over the pop-top and bungee it to the stanchion bases. It won't help with bugs, but it will cover the pop-top and surrounding deck against light rain and still allow ventilation. A 6x8 tarp over the boom, bungeed to the lifelines give good cockpit cover too.

Thanks DMPILC: we are using the tarp method currently, sure does work well!

Have people made their own, ordered from Catdirect? Sources?

He would know better than I would. I only know about it because he offered it to me not realizing I already have one. He is a really good guy and very knowledgable about the C25 and sailing in general. I'm sure if you respond to his ad he will get back to you and answer any questions you may have. Hope it works out for you.

Michael,

If you don't buy this cover I might. I have an '89. I just emailed him so let me know if you're not interested.

Still waiting for an answer from Capn' Kevs friend. offered a shipped price, and no info on wether it would fit or not. If I do purchase and it doesn't fit the 80' I will offer to you Gary at purchased price.

Glad to hear it worked out for you. The guy called me Friday but I didn't return his call. I didn't know where you were in your negotiations with him and I didn't want to interfere.

Excellent glad it worked out. He is a good guy. We have used our enclosure on a few overnights and it's a great feature on these already great boats.

Gary, I was looking at mine yesterday and thinking it might be good to list it here.

If you want it, give me a shout, and we can work out details.

Chris, since my earlier post I've learned a few new things about these boats and I don't think an '84 cover will work on an '89 due to the changes in the way the pop top is designed but thanks for the offer.

If anyone knows differently please let me know.

If anyone has a cover for an '89 I'm still looking.
