HR25 History

The HR25 was designed by George Hinterhoeller in the late 1960's as a larger version of the Shark 24. This is evident in the basic design of the boat.  Many people have mistaken 'Odyssey', my HR25, for a modified Shark.  True Shark fans would never make that mistake.  The boat was originally built by Hinterhoeller in the first 2-3 years of production and thereafter constructed by C&C Yachts.  To date, I have not been able to determine the total quantity of boats produced.  'Odyssey' is hull number "55" and was built in 1970. 

As both a fun and fast boat, the HR25 is a perfect weekend cruiser and club racer for the novice to the experienced yachtsman.   Double click the images to the left to see pictures of 'Odyssey' in action.  I have included a basic diagram of the boat's layout as well.

If anyone can shed more light, let me know.
