The C&C 25 is a quintessential "performance pocket cruiser" that helped define the Canadian builder’s reputation for speed and structural integrity during the 1970s. Introduced in 1970 as one of the firm’s first production models, it was designed by the legendary team of George Cuthbertson and Robert Ball. At a time when many 25footers were designed as sluggish "floating campers," C&C prioritized a refined hull shape and a high ballast ratio, creating a boat that could compete in Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) events on Saturdays and cruise a small family on Sundays. Over its production run, which lasted until approximately 1982, the model evolved through two distinct iterations: the Mark I (1970–1975) and the Mark II (1976–1982), the latter of which featured a taller rig and a slightly revised deck mold for increased interior volume.
