New 26 foot import


JK

Recommended Posts

Looks heavy and at 26 foot and 1820kg it is heavy?

 

Bloody heavy......

 

If you want to import a 26 fter go for one of these little beau's GP26

 

Looks fun...... But not much room for a night away anywhere.

 

SJ's not exactly a cruiser, but I can happily do a weekend somewhere.

 

The Sail ONe at least looks like it might have some accom...Although I think might be left in SJ's wake if it was light wind!.

 

Very much designed along the lines of most new Keelers though- High water line etc.

 

How much volume is down stairs?

Is there one here yet?

 

Must admit though...the keel doesn't look that pretty.

 

If there is one here...any sail tests been done for feedback?

 

Nothings been said about how it actually sails......

I was reffering to the Far East sailing.

 

The GP26 obviously goes nuts out....But has no accom or cruisability...which I think has some appeal to many Up to 26 type sailors.

Deckgear looks a little liteweight for NZ conditions. The Halyards all look to go to cam cleets which would kill the ropes super quick in normal auckland sailing conditions. Not a bad price but I'd still take a 20yr old SR26 or cool change over a new one of these.
