Hello jproppe, You might check the sailboatowners, yachtworld, and other online boats for sale sites for info/pictures of other C&C 25 MK 1 for sale. That would show equipment and condition and price information that you could use to judge your purchase. Also, do a search for the C&C 25 and you will probably find a review (or even several) as a choice from your search engine. Reading those posts could be a start until you find a response from a person sailing one now. Enjoy the hunt!

The C&C 25 mkI is an excellent boat for boat learning and growing with. They are very good quality boats and tend to hold their value well. There are about 15 C&C 25's in our club and most of them are actively raced. All sailboats heel but the 25 is a fairly stable boat considering her size. If you were really in 30 knots of wind, expect any boat to heel a lot. It would also depend on what size headsail was up and if the main was reefed. I've raced on a few 25 mkI 's and found them to be responsive and well mannered. They can handle strong winds and chop easily. The 25 is definitely worth serious consideration. Check out the www.cncphotoalbum.com site if you haven't already done so. There is a wealth of information there.

I, too, think the mid-70's C&C 25 is an excellent boat with great sailing characteristics. Friend of mine owned one for 20 yrs and we sailed on it together a lot and in all kinds of weather on the Chesapeake. We just returned from a 65-mile trip to deliever this fine old boat to its new owner. A great trip in a great boat. Yet I think $5,900 for a '73 may be a bit overpriced. My friend's boat was a well equipped '76 with newish sails and roller furler (but no trailer), a 9.9 electric start OB, and sold for $4,500, a good price. I also owned and sailed a C&C 24 (Niagra) for many years. It is a very different boat than the 1 foot longer 25. Although it has bit deeper keel, I do not think it as stable as the 25 in serious weather which may also result from its flat bottom and beam-to-length ratio. I think the 24 is more of a cruiser than the 25, but both are really good sailing boats and would make an excellent starter if in good condition. Get a qualified surveyor to look over this boat.  

I agree with Warren regarding the C&C 24 vs 25. The sailing characteristics of the 25 make it feel like more than a foot longer than the 24. I've sailed and raced on both. Regarding the price, it all depends on the condition of the boat and how it is equiped. Good quality sails can easily cost a few thousand dollars for that boat. Spend some time looking at similar boats and you'll begin to see that the well maintained/fitted boats tend to demand a higher price. It's difficult to place a value on a boat based strictly on the model and year.

The C&C 25 is a 25.16ft masthead sloop designed by C&C and built in fiberglass by C&C Yachts since 1973.

The C&C 25 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. There is a very short water supply range.

  • Add to quote

Anybody out there with one of these? Thanks,  

I have one pretty much totally restored. It sails great and a perfect weekender for 2 people. I got new sails 2 seasons ago 135% genny and a loose footed fully battened main. It is pretty fast for a 45 year old boat. I go back in the water on Monday after a bottom paint job. If you have any questions ask. Mine is a 1975 hull #380. Jim  

Awesome! - any areas to inspect or take special attention? Heard about the C&C smile but what else should I look for?  

Thru hull fittings and seacocks pay special attention to anything below the water line.  

great - will check those out - btw. regarding the interior, is possible to make it more "open"? e.g. trimming the wood panels a bit to make the door space wider? I have been looking for pictures to see if there is a compression post inside (it does not look like), so I assume the interior partitions have structural function on supporting the mast so that may not be an option.....  

Probably not a good idea to cut bulkhead. It will give you a better view of the head and closet.  

LOL - definitely that is not the plan; was just wondering what others owners may have done with the interior to ligthen/freshen it up. have been searching for pictures but not much really - will post here what I have found.

1974 C&C 25 boat for sale

A great Canadian sailboat that needs to be sold asap due to health issues and is priced accordingly.

The C&C 25 is an excellent starter sailboat for those looking to go beyond dinghy sailing. There are built in Canada and are strong, simple, fast, and forgiving. They have the feel of a big boat partially because of the 50% ballast to displacement ratio…making it a good stiff sailor (stays upright). Below has a ton of space compared to most other boat in it’s class. With sleeping spots for 4 it can take a family comfortably for long weekends and exploring the coast. Having an outboard is the preferred arrangement for the 25 and the 2016 Honda 4 stroke 9.9HP is relatively new, reliable and quiet.

This boat is easy to sail, very strong, and handles weather and waves without trouble. The shallow draft will get you anywhere. The huge companionway hatch makes the below very open and airy, and easy for entry/exit, especially for kids.

On board there is a small galley, storage, seating and sleeping area with a solid fuel stove, head with marine toilet, hanging locker and large V berth.

There is plenty of ventilation.

C&C 25 MKII

C&C 25 MKII is a 25 ′ 0 ″ / 7.6 m monohull sailboat designed by Robert Ball and C&C Design and built by C&C Yachts starting in 1980.

Drawing of C&C 25 MKII

Rig and Sails

Auxilary power, accomodations, calculations.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.

Classic hull speed formula:

Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL

Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio .311 Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL

Sail Area / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.

SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64) 2/3

  • SA : Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
  • D : Displacement in pounds.

Ballast / Displacement Ratio

A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.

Ballast / Displacement * 100

Displacement / Length Ratio

A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.

D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
  • LWL: Waterline length in feet

Comfort Ratio

This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.

Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam 1.33 )

  • D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
  • LOA: Length overall in feet
  • Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet

Capsize Screening Formula

This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.

CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)

  1. C&C 25

    A boat with a BN of 1.6 or greater is a boat that will be reefed often in offshore cruising. Derek Harvey, "Multihulls for Cruising and Racing", International Marine, Camden, Maine, 1991, states that a BN of 1 is generally accepted as the dividing line between so-called slow and fast multihulls.

  2. C&C 25

    C&C 25 Mk II C&C 25 Mk II or 25-2 This model was a complete redesign of the earlier C&C 25 by Robert W. Ball and introduced in 1980. A smaller and lighter boat than its predecessor, it has a length overall of 25.08 ft (7.6 m), a waterline length of 20.00 ft (6.1 m), displaces 4,150 lb (1,882 kg) and carries 1,880 lb (853 kg) of lead ballast.

  3. C&C 25

    C&C 25 - opinions? There are a couple of different boats that this might be. There was a 25 foot C&C design that was constructed by Hinterhoeller and then there was a later 25 footer that was built by C&C. 1973 is just about the time that the Hinterhoeller went out of production and the C&C went into production.

  5. Review of C&C 25

    The immersion rate is defined as the weight required to sink the boat a certain level. The immersion rate for C&C 25 is about 111 kg/cm, alternatively 626 lbs/inch. Meaning: if you load 111 kg cargo on the boat then it will sink 1 cm. Alternatively, if you load 626 lbs cargo on the boat it will sink 1 inch.
