The picture shown does not appear to be a Macgregor 25. Unless the one in the picture is some sort of modified version of the 25, it appears to be a Macgregor 22. The 25s have two windows on the port side and 2 on the starboard side respectively. The 22s have one window on either sides. Also, not to be overly critical, but the vessel is not labeled as the Macgregor M-25. Rather, it’s the “ Macgregor 25.”
