The Yamaha 26 is a 26.18ft fractional sloop designed by Yamaha Design team and built in fiberglass by Yamaha since 1979.
The Yamaha 26 is a moderate weight sailboat which is a reasonably good performer. It is stable / stiff and has a low righting capability if capsized. It is best suited as a day-boat. The fuel capacity is originally very small. There is a very short water supply range.
