Originally built in the late 80's by Bill Stanton.
Rebuilt in the last three years. I have added a rotating mast. I have
also added some fairing below the waterline, and ordered a reaching spinnaker.
The Spinnaker is being cut to allow for a three foot retractable bowsprit.My boat was built by Bill Stanton, who is about 6' 8" in height. He
colaborated with the designer in adding a bit of length in order to
have 7' berths. I don't think one could adding length to an existing
25' would be worth the trouble.
By the way I did add 4' to the length of the mast, and finally
sailed it again on the 21st. I had some trouble setting the main
sail, and the sail shape was far from perfect as a result, but the
GPS still listed 12.2 MPH. The wind was at about 15 MPH and the
water was relatively flat. It is the first time it has gone more
than 10 MPH without surfing. I hope to have it up to 15 or even 20
knots by the end of the summer.
