Georgs, Apologies for previous posting without signature. Steve Ellis builds these along with a newer 36'. The local press and fisher people love these boats. The 26'3" is unique because of it's folding transom. Draft @ 13" is impressive for a boat this size. The 36' is beautiful albeit pricey. Small operation with high quality control. I'm sure Steve has more insights should you wish to contact him.

I'm not a fisherman and don't know much about small fishing cats, but what the heck makes one unique and better than the others? Not a trick question. Just hoping I and others can learn something. --Georgs > A little larger than your parameters but worth a look. Unique boat, > very > popular Florida west coast (where they are built).
