Getting her launched and seaworthy will be its own little
reward. You can always work from there.. but you'll be motivated.

I loved the lines on her too, like I stated before..
It was a love- hate thing , though ..I think.. like the Pontiac Aztec.
A couple of boatbuilders copied it and made knockoffs, though, as I see them around..
I'll photograph one in my marina...if I get a chance

You don't have one of those for the 26 express, do you?


The F24 was what you would call a ''sunbrige'' cruiser.. today
as opposed to the 25 cabin cruiser illustrated.

Raised cockpit over an oversized cuddy..no lower helm

Here is the spec sheet on a 24, I looked for a sheet for an f26 there wasn't one sorry.
I don't see the "aztec look" but my father says it reminds him of a brinks truck, because of the narrow rectangular windows look like gun ports!
