I just inherited a 1974 Hunter 25 and am trying to find a good home for it as I do not sail. A potential new owner asked me whether this boat has a retractable keel and I didn't know what to tell him. Does anyone know the answer (or how I could determine that without going snorkling)? Thanks, Anatole

keel

Anatole, I have a 74 hunter 25 and it has a fixed keel with 3'11" draft. I believe this is the full draft design and there was another with a shoal keel. As far as I know both are fixed. I would be interested in other responses just out of curiousity. It's ashamed you arent' interested in sailing because inheriting a boat is something alot of people dream about. It certainly would have made my year! Best of luck! Chris Blue Light Special

Keel Is Fixed

According to the brochures for this model, all keels are fixed.

Thanks!

Thanks, John & Chris. Seems like the sailing community consists of a very friendly, helpful bunch. Makes me wonder if maybe I should consider learning the craft ... if only I could find the time! --Anatole
