1974 Hunter 25 Draft size?

[Michael]

A little help if you can. I need to know the draft for a 1974 Hunter 25. Please don't tell me they made two sizes for 25's. My hunch is that there was ONE size draft for the 74'.Thanks

shoal draft 2'11", 2000lbs. Deep draft is 3'11", 1800 lbs.

Thanks for the specifications on the weight. Do you know which one was put on the 74' OR are you telling me both keels were used that year? If so, WHY?

Market, design

Boats have shoal and deep draft keels because the market (we boaters) want this option depending on our sailing location, needs, and plans.When designing a boat, it is easier to solve both keels at the same time. Likewise, when the ballast/stability is tested by inclining the new boat and measuring recovery forces; solving the weight and shape of the keels at the same time is most effective.Anyway, that's my idea.DavidLady Lillie
