Sadler 26 for sale in Burnham-on-Crouch, United Kingdom

The Sadler 26 needs no introduction. Designed by Martin Sadler as an evolution of the Contessa 26 and Sadler 25 both designed by his father David Sadler, the Sadler 26 has proven herself to be a very capable cruiser with a high ballast ratio, deep cockpit and well proportioned rig. The Sadler twin skin hull construction, with foam buoyancy, makes the Sadler 26 "unsinkable". 'Pinto' is the standard keel version and benefits from an updated Nanni engine fitted in 2023 with new shaft seal and cutless bearing. Viewing by appointment only through our Essex office.
