The Saga 26HT is a versatile little boat that offers surprising accommodation for her size and a high-quality fitout. She is powered by a Yanmar 85hp inboard diesel engine on shaft drive, complemented by a bow thruster for easy maneuvering. The layout includes an enclosed wheelhouse and heating for year-round cruising. Maintained to a very high standard, there is little to fault with her overall presentation and specifications. Lying afloat at Lymington, viewings are by appointment with our office.

Accommodation
SLEEPS UP TO FIVE IN CABIN AND COCKPIT
A wide companionway leads from the cockpit down just a couple of steps to the main cabin, which is finished in teak. Commanding the forward areas is a U-shaped dinette, with space for four to seat comfortably and a headroom of 1.83m. The table drops to create a comfortable 1.89m x 1.52m double berth, and a further single berth extends beneath the port side of the cockpit with a length of 1.89m and a width of 0.51m. Lockers are fitted beneath the seat cushions, and there is a large deep cupboard in the bow and a half hanging wardrobe to port. The cockpit and wheelhouse shelter form a single integrated area, excellent for both boating and socializing. A large U-shaped settee with table wraps around the aft section, and the galley is located between this and the helm. The skipper and co-pilot each have independent seats. The superstructure protects everyone from the worst of the weather, and a recently replaced canopy is fitted to cover the aft sections. The aft settee can be converted into a further double berth or comfortable sun bed with the aid of infill cushions. Access to the engine is via the cockpit floor through a hinged hatch.
