I own one 1982 F25 with long windows and a wing mast and a 1984 F25 with opening ports and a round mast. When I mentioned earlier that the interior of the younger boat was fiberglass, I was referring to the settee, quarter berths and v- berth. The interior walls are wood. I am sure you have looked a...

BTW my round mast F25 is for sale.
