Reason: sold
Thanks Wags, just putting the feelers out, By no means is it a fire sale. I just haven't had time to use her this year, and can't stand to see her sitting.
Chris, wow, now that makes three of us! Why don't we pool our resources and buy a 56 Viking???? That is a great looking 26 with awesome electronics, good luck with the sale.

Thanks for the compliments guys, I wish I had more time to use this boat, it's finally rigged the way I wanted. Kills me to see her sitting around.
Hooper, nice thought on the Viking....
depending on load She cruises between 28-32 knots at 4000 rpm burning 1.6-2.0 NMPG. Top speed at 5500 rpm just over 40 knots. This is with the new 4 blade powertechs.
2000 Regulator 26 Classic SOLD
