Wing 25 |
Brief details |
Builder |
Moulded by Tylers, fitted out by A. V. Robertson |
The Wing 25 is an
attractive little cruiser with the hull designed by Colin Mudie
and the deck layout by Ricus van de Stadt. The design dates from
1964, and production continued, with various alterations along the
way, running up to a Mk IV version before the last boats were built
in 1981. Most of the Wing 25s built were originally fitted with
a 6.5 hp air cooled Lister diesel, but most yachts will by now have
been re-engined

The example illustrated here is understood to be hull no 1
from 1964, and is unusual in having had the keel-hung rudder
removed, and a separate spade rudder fitted - the plan
here shows the original standard arrangement. This modification
was apparently done to improve the handling.
