The Outlaw 26 is an American sailboat that was designed by Philip Rhodes as a cruiser and first built in 1965.[1][2][3]
Production
The design was built by O'Day Corp. in the United States between 1965 and 1968, with 80 examples completed.[1][3]
After production had been completed the molds for the Outlaw 26 design were sold to Northern Yachts of Ajax, Ontario, Canada . The design was developed into the Northern 25 in 1970, with the addition of a fin keel and a taller cabin.[4]
Design
The Outlaw 26 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a spooned raked stem, a raised transom, a keel- mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed long keel. It displaces 5,050 lb (2,291 kg) and carries 2,300 lb (1,043 kg) of ballast.[1][3]
The boat has a draft of 4.25 ft (1.30 m) with the standard keel fitted.[1][3]
A tall rig version was available, with a mast about 2.0 ft (0.61 m) higher than standard for locations with lighter average winds.[1][3]
The boat is normally fitted with a small outboard motor in a transom well, for docking and maneuvering.[1][3]
The design has a hull speed of 5.84 kn (10.82 km/h).[3][5][6]
