I have several postings on this board regarding 26M and Tattoo that you should read. I was going through this process last year just as Roger closed the factory. I went down and visited him as he had about 10 finished boats still at the factory. I think Roger did a great job in designing these boats and the Tattoo isn't that different other than color scheme and minor modifications. The more I learn about these boats the more I realize how important it is to read a lot and carefully consider how you are going to use the boat, so that you'd outfit it according to your use. BWY website is also very informative.
