The Wing 25 is a quintessential example of the "pocket cruiser" philosophy that defined British yachting in the 1960s and 70s. Designed by the prolific naval architect Colin Mudie and primarily molded by the Tyler Boat Co. Ltd., the Wing 25 was conceived as a robust, seaworthy vessel capable of coastal passages that might intimidate other boats of its size. While Tyler provided the highquality Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP) hulls and decks, the final fitting out was often completed by various yards—most notably Monk & Richards—or by skilled amateur builders. This production model resulted in a fleet where no two boats are identical, yet all share the foundational "little ship" DNA. The design is characterized by its traditional long keel, transomhung rudder, and elegant, sweeping lines that reflect Mudie's background in both modern and classic naval architecture.
