Design
editThe Endeavor 26 is a racing keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig; a spooned, raked stem, a raised counter, angled transom, a keel-mounted rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 3,200 lb (1,451 kg) and carries 1,600 lb (726 kg) of lead ballast.[1][2]
The boat has a draft of 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with the standard keel.[1][2]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and two straight settees in the main cabin. The head is located centered in the bow cabin under the "V"-berth.[1][2]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with a symmetrical spinnaker of 340 sq ft (32 m2).[1][2]
The design has a hull speed of 5.69 kn (10.54 km/h).[2]
