Well, of course the 26M is a great boat, and its adjustable draft

Actually, though, it's not really necessary for you to go that far
upscale. - The S2 would be almost as good


Hey Jim.
Did you know that Matt's S2 7.9 has a lifting keel? More
effective than water ballast & more efficent than a
centerboard, and can be pulled up to very shallow draft
(about 1'3" IIRC).

Just so you know better in the future.
