Not mine, and no affiliation, just passing it along.

http://newyork.craigslist.org/stn/boa/2847712149.html

From the ad: SAILBOAT CATALINA 25 IS FOR SALE. YEAR 1984. THE BOAT COMES WITH MOTOR HONDA 9.9 AND TRAILER "MAGIC TILT". THE BOAT HAS A SWING KEEL. BOAT IS READY TO SAIL IN THE SPRING TIME,IT JUST NEEDS SOME MINOR WORK (LIKE PAINTING AND CLEANING BOTTOM OF THE BOAT)

ALL IN GOOD CONDITION AND NO PROBLEMS AT ALL. READY TO SAIL!!

I OWN THE BOAT FOR 3 YEARS. SUMMER TIME IT STAYS IN THE WATER, EVERY FALL I TAKE IT OUT OF THE WATER AND FOR THE WINTER IT STORES ON THE GROUND, IN FALL I DO ALL THE MISC REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE. SO BOAT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.

EMAIL ME IF YOU ARE INTERESTED AND HAVE MORE QUESTIONS.

NOTE: In my case, PLEASE don't confuse stars/number of posts with actual knowledge. On any topic.

Jim, If you notice this is the same guy who is selling the trailer I posted in Staten Island. He ether sold the boat or is willing to sell the trailer separately.

Ahhh! I missed that, Scott! I sent him an E-mail about the trailer. His asking price is out of my budget; we'll see if he'll deal.

Maybe but from what I've seen a trailer for a C25 is usually in this price range. This one isn't very old (2005) Is set up for a C25, And I'm guessing that he used it mostly for winter storage so there is a good chance its never touched the water. See what he says.

I'm not sure I would get too excited about that trailer. Looking closely at the bunks I don't think that trailer was originally designed for a C25. The bunks are way out on the edge of the trailer frame and don't properly support the hull. I wonder if it's not more of a yard trailer?

The above being said, I'm sure it could easily be adjusted and/or modified to properly fit the boat.

I had my trailer adjusted to do just that.
