1978 Tollycraft 26 SedanSold

Step aboard and you’ll notice how much “real boat” Tollycraft squeezed into 26 feet. The salon windows are large and low, so everyone gets a view underway, not just the helmsman. The flybridge is simple and open, making it easy to run the boat short-handed and still stay connected with crew in the cockpit. Engine access is straightforward, with room to actually get both hands and tools where you need them. Storage is clever and deep, built for weekend cruising rather than just day hops. Classic Tolly lines, a solid rub rail, and that reassuringly high bow give this boat a purposeful, seaworthy stance at the dock and underway.

In local waters where conditions can shift from calm to lumpy in a single outing, the 26 Sedan’s weight and hull form shine. It carries its beam well forward, helping soften the ride in short chop common on open stretches and channels. The flybridge offers a clear vantage point for reading currents, traffic, and crab pot fields, while the lower helm keeps you warm and dry when weather turns. The large cockpit suits crabbing, fishing, or loading coolers and gear for island runs. Efficient single-engine power keeps operating costs in check, yet still delivers the range to explore remote coves and sheltered anchorages.
