Is the interior headroom the same on all C25's or does it depend on what keel configuration the boat has? I'm wondering if a fixed keel boat might have more headroom than a swing keel model?

I belive the headroom is the same on all models, next to nothing. Although not all c-25's have pop-tops.

I can fully stand and walk completely under the hatch with it closed. My hair rubs the pop top with it down. I have to tilt my head down in the head area. I am 5' 10". C25 is 1990 (5978) wing keel. The floor is all one level. The swing is different. I don

Anyone know what year they changed the floor to level. My 86 has that stupid centerline step that I have tripped on more than once.

A C25 with 5 feet 10 inches headroom sounds almost to good to be true.What was the first year they introduced the wing keel?

My wing keel is a 1989 and has a level floor. There's plenty of headroom -- I'm only 5'8''!

My '81 TRFK has just enough headroom at the companionway for me - I'm 5'6". Once I go further forward I have to bend my head. And the cabin sole has slopes and an increasing ledge towards the forward bulkhead..

The wing keel was introduced as an option in 1988, but they did not change the floor pan until 1989. The floor pan change is small, but it makes a very large difference for some of us. They curved it and fit it closer to the hull. This provides variabl
