The 1983 Nordic Tug 26 is a classic Pacific Northwest trawler with a semi-displacement hull, full keel, and hard chine design that delivers stable tracking and a comfortable ride. The boat's iconic tug profile pairs practical seaworthiness with a raised pilothouse offering excellent visibility and large wraparound windows that flood the cabin with natural light. Powered by a single 70-horsepower Lugger diesel engine, the boat cruises at 7 knots with strong fuel economy and reaches a maximum speed of 10 knots.
Below deck, the teak interior is warm and functional. A convertible dinette and efficient galley are arranged to maximize usable space in a compact footprint, while the naturally lit helm area serves as both working station and gathering space. The boat's layout suits extended cruising and liveaboard use.
The Lugger LEK854A is a naturally aspirated mechanical diesel—straightforward in design and recognized for durability and long service life. With no complicated electronics, maintenance remains accessible to owner-operators. The boat's fiberglass hull measures 26 feet in length with a 9.5-foot beam.
