2006 Fortier 26

This 2006 Fortier 26 is a fiberglass Downeast-style boat built for fishing, cruising, and overnight trips. The hull measures 26 feet in length with a 9.5-foot beam, embodying Fortier's traditional New England design and construction. Power comes from a single Cummins QSB5.9-230 diesel engine rated at 230 horsepower, delivering a cruising speed of 18 knots and a maximum speed of 25 knots. The fuel tank holds 160 gallons, providing extended range for extended time on the water.

The boat features one cabin and a thoughtfully organized layout suited to seasonal use and overnight stays. The interior has been finished with comfort upgrades including reverse cycle air conditioning and heating, a full enclosure, and custom interior work. These improvements reflect attention to both functionality and livability for extended cruising.

The Cummins diesel engine represents a significant step above the standard powerplant typically found in this model, offering better performance and efficiency alongside simplified maintenance. The combination of proven Downeast hull design, modern upgrades, and substantial fuel capacity makes this boat well-suited to varied uses along the coast.
