C&C Redline 25
Description
The C&C Redline 25 (also known as the Redline 25 (C&C) or C&C 25 Redline) is a classic Canadian daysailer/weekender/racer from the early C&C era, designed by Cuthbertson & Cassian (C&C Design) and built by C&C Yachts (initially under Bruckmann Manufacturing) starting in 1969. It was produced in limited numbers during the late 1960s–early 1970s as a compact, high-performance fiberglass boat with a keel/centerboard configuration—making it trailerable, shallow-draft friendly, and versatile for coastal daysailing, club racing, or family weekending. This model draws from C&C's early racing heritage (influenced by designs like the famous Red Jacket and Condor), emphasizing stiffness, speed, and fun handling in a small package. It's often praised for its "big boat feel" in a 25-footer—quick to plane, stiff under sail, and surprisingly roomy below for its size.
