Why no more 25's?
With the cost of fuel these days I think the single engine market is going to grow leaps and bounds. Why not bring back the 25 or better yet build a 26 to spank them new Bajas. I have ridden in R'Addictions 25 and I love it! The ride is great and I think it is ashame not to build a boat in that class right now. Come on Pat how about it???

Rob, I was told the 25 cost almost exactly the same to build as the 28. So, why would anyone want 3' less boat, especially a substantially more usable cabin, for a little more $$? Plus, it makes things more streamlined at the AT facility, which isn't massive, to produce 28, 33, 37 & now the 43. I agree, John's 25 is a sweet riding boat and who's not say a 25 wouldn't be made down the line. But their sales had dropped off a bit; actually the 37 outsells all other models combined in the past few years.(just an assumption from what I've read & seen at evevnts)
John will be ready to sell next year, count on it...he's due to move up to a 32!

BTW I love John's boat but no more hand me downs. I already ride around in "Chuck's old boat" I don't need to pull up in places with "John's old AT" No offence to anyone but I feel like I need to step out on my own. I may have to buy a used boat but I don't want to pull up and have my boat referred to as someones "old" boat. (It gets old)
