the globally popular 25C catamaran launch in taiwan |
The
Still Water 25C is by far our most popular
design. It's just the right combination of being big enough
to carry four in luxury (up to 11 persons
in an emergency!), yet small enough to be quite manueverable
and easily dealt with on dry land.
The
25C began its life as an early prototype
of Dick Pereli's in 1987.
Dick knew that rowing coaches needed a stable, safe platform
which could spend almost 100% of its time
at the traditionally enormous wake-producing speeds of 10-20
knots. This problem has been around since
rowing and power boats have shared the same water
ways. The solutions is a lightweight catamaran
design which produces almost no discernible wake.
We
don't cut corners at Still Water, and as
our flagship, the 25C has proven the tests of time again
and again. We have produced about two hundred
25C's since 1994 using only the highest
quality epoxy resins and compositie lay-ups (for a picture
of a lay-up, click the red photo
on the Newick32
page). The natural properties of our materials and quality
construction gives our customers boats that will last countless
seasons.
Our
design has had a few changes incrementally
since its inception in '87, showing that good designs can
be improved upon but needn't be "fixed".
In 2005, we took some chances on putting
together a package of options that would create an expansion
of the 25C's traits; a unique approach
that would amplify the launch's already superior safety,
simplicity, and comfort. This has yielded the introduction
of the 25XL (click
here to see), a truly powerful,
sleek, and satisfying vessel that is both
a continuation of the 25C's luxury and an astounding increase
in safety modifications.
