You'd be doing him a bigger favor if you could find him one
with properly built chainplate structural ties.

My mistake. I thought he was looking for a 25. They look the same. There can't be much difference though. The 25 only has two
feet of draught.


The hulls are pretty much the same but the rig, keel, deck,
& cockpit configuration are quite different. I ma not
familiar enough with the 25 to see where they squeeze it in,
but the 26 feels a lot more roomy.
