Does anyone have a first 26 they could give me a review of please?

Also have you ever used beaching legs with the lifting keel version and how usable are they really?

Thanks

Tim

What year? Is this the early-mid 80s boat?

Yeah made from 85 to 91 if I recall. Mine is 86.

Ah! Very nice. It has the same lifting keel as our 1996 First 260. I know people that use the legs in France and England in drying harbors and say they work well.
