Another boat to keep an eye out for...

There's a Columbia 26 for sale locally and I row past it just about every other day...

The seller is currently asking too much, it's beat up, and will take (maybe) too much work to make it an economic project at its current asking price. That said, it's still one of the great small cruising boats anyone has ever produced.


Like a lot of great boats built for those on a budget, it never quite got the respect that more expensive or better hyped designs received.

For those on a budget that's no bad thing as it means if you happen to find one its more than likely a bargain. So, you might want to keep an eye out...
