Smaller than a C25. In the boatyard next to Indiscipline. Long overhangs and big keel!



Indiscipline 1978 FK SR #398

It kinda looks like a Coronado 25. We have a friend who has one at Folsom lake. It has the same hull top and lines, but something about it is a little different. Could just be the year.

The cabin trunk looks a lot like a Westerly Tiger (made in England). The hull is more stream-line though.

Sure that's smaller than 25? Looks like a Columbia 23... Alberg 23?

Nope.. just looked, too many windows in the trunk cabin.

Debbie's the Winner!!!

After poking around a little bit, the boat is indeed a Coronado 25.

Good job!

That's what I was going to say! Not bad looking, although it needs a blue hull or something... Too much B&W. Here's a page out of its brochure... http://sailing.cnchost.com/images/25-SalesBro-P3.jpg

The boat has lovely lines and lots of keel and ballast. Probably stands up well in a blow. Looks more "blue water" than our boats. Wheel steering, inboard. Looks like standing headroom, too!

However, I'm sure Indiscipline will be faster on all points of sail.

Maybe for Spike... 5'6" The shear line and lower freeboard (aft)might be deceiving.

Hmm, the logo in the brocure looks a lot like the C-25 logo.....did Frank Butler have something to do with this? I seem to remember something here....

I believe Frank Butler's first line of boats was the Coronado.

Hmmm... looks better from that angle. I had a Coronado (25 I think) slipped behind me a number of years back... when viewed from the dock they didn't look all that graceful.

Lotsa cabin for their size though... the fellow who had it was using it as a livaboard.

I thought Coronado 25 too. What's missing is the rail they usually have
that goes forward from cockpit to deck.
