Had some time to kill. Thought the C25 image could use an 89 update.

Balanced rudder.
Traveler with railing.
Lifeline attached to pulpit and rear railing.
Eyebrow area modified.
Front hatch.
Window trim removed.
Removed R/G signal from hull. Didn't think I wanted it on the pulpit either. lol
Updated the paint scheme.

I may make a WK version too. Or add the tiller although it may get cluttered. Seems better without it.


Modeled from my 89:








Earlier model:

1989 C-25 TR/WK #5894
Miss Behavin'
Sittin' in LCYC on Canyon Lake, Texas

Nice work! Just one thing--does yours have the rounded corners on the salon windows/deadlights, or are they like this (from the '88+ brochure)?

Updated the original. I didn't pay too much attention to what I was doing with the deadlights as I removed the trim. I corrected it by slanting the f/r edges as Dave pointed out, and adding trim to the galley port.

I'll try my best to get a SK done. I'm not an artist by any means. I'm just doing touch-ups in Paint at work. lol

If anyone wants a colorscheme done, post a pic and I'll create another. I think they had blue ones of the same striping.

Nice job Jonathan.

I assume '89 was the first year where the forward main salon port-lights have the slanted leading edge?

I searched but couldn't find the thread that delineate the MK versions of C25.

Here's an early model SK. I just used the original pic and added the SK to it. Let me know if you think the proportions are wrong or it needs some kind of modification or personal variation of color, rudder, lifelines, navlights etc.

somehow that sk fin looks delicate compared to the huge chunk of a keel I saw on an early model C25 SK.

almost looks like the centerboard from a C250

Right now, I only have this to go by:



Hard to find a profile pic of a C25 with the keel down on the hard. ;)

the balanced rudder looks so much better,like it was "designed". the original looks like it was drawn on a sheet of plywood, cut out with a skilsaw.

Updated C-25 S/K lines - refined some lines, removed name, added a little color. Add your boat's name and it makes a great t-shirt.

Dave, it looks like you have the skeg just forward of the rudder on the SK version, which is correct, and the line representing the bottom at the skeg... but not on the FK and WK. You also have a line representing the waterline--what's the line just below it?
