The Chrysler 26 is a 26.0ft masthead sloop designed by Halsey Hereshoff and built in fiberglass by Chrysler Marine since 1977.
The Chrysler 26 is a light sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is very stable / stiff and has a good righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat.
