The C&C 26 Wave is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by C&C designer Robert W. Ball and first built in 1988.[1][2][3]

Despite its name, the C&C 26 Wave is a development of the C&C 27 Mark V and not the C&C 26.[1][3]

Production

[edit]

The boat was built by C&C Yachts in Canada, starting in 1988, but it is now out of production.[1][3][4]

Design

[edit]

The C&C 26 Wave is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a fixed wing keel. It displaces 4,700 lb (2,132 kg) and carries 1,700 lb (771 kg) of iron ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 2.92 ft (0.89 m) with the standard wing keel fitted. The boat is fitted with a Universal M-12 diesel engine.[1][3]

The design has a PHRF racing average handicap of 219 with a high of 231 and low of 210. It has a hull speed of 6.43 kn (11.91 km/h).[3][5]
