1977 Wasque 26 BESQUITE
A widely admired New England cult classic, the Wasque 26 is a good looking express cruiser with a roomy interior for its size, and large cockpit. With her well-maintained Yanmar four cylinder turbocharged diesel inboard, she cruises at 18 knots with a top speed of approximately 22 knots. She has been cared for by the world-class team at Concordia Company since 2007.
From CW Hood: “In the early 1970s, a group of fishermen were taken by the lines of a little bass boat they spotted working the waters along the Vineyard shore, and decided to start building the boat on a limited production basis. With that, Vineyard Yachts was opened for business and, borrowing the name of what had become a popular fishing spot, the first Wasque 26 was introduced to the boating public. She quickly gained notoriety for both her gorgeous lines and impressive seaworthiness. A yachting icon was born.”
