Author	Topic:   Classic Outrage 25 hull design
Whalerific	posted 07-30-2009 12:00 PM ET (US)         Does anyone know the deadrise angle on the classic Outrage 25 (1980-1989)? Was it designed by Bob Dougherty? Did he consult with Raymond Hunt? Is it a truly "constant deadrise" design?
Tom W Clark	posted 07-30-2009 12:09 PM ET (US)             The Outrage 25 has a slightly variable deadrise. I have measure this hull myself: At the transom -- 17.25 degrees Amidships -- 22 degrees Forward near the drain tube -- 26 degrees I do not believe Ray Hunt was involved with the design of this hull. He died in 1978.

Hunt didn't get along too well, and that might have been the the reason Whaler only built a few Yankee Voyagers, because Uncle Bob wasn't keen on Whaler aquiring the Hiliner molds in the first place.
