Stone Horse 26

Originally designed by renowned naval architect S. S. Crocker in 1931, this classic cutter represents traditional New England craftsmanship at its finest. Built by Edey & Duff over several decades with 150 hulls completed, the Stone Horse 26 exemplifies the timeless appeal of working boat aesthetics combined with excellent seakeeping abilities. The boat's wood and fiberglass construction features a long keel with transom-hung rudder, providing exceptional directional stability and tracking in challenging conditions. With a displacement of 4,490 pounds and 2,000 pounds of ballast, she offers reassuring heft and stability for her size. The cutter rig configuration allows for versatile sail handling and balanced performance across varying wind conditions. Her conservative design priorities make this an ideal coastal cruiser and weekend explorer, though the robust construction and seaworthy characteristics have proven capable of more ambitious passages. The comfort ratio of 24 reflects her motion at sea, while the moderate sail area and deep draft suggest she'll perform best in areas with adequate water depth. This design appeals particularly to sailors who value traditional character, solid construction, and predictable handling over pure speed, making her well-suited for those seeking a reliable, classic cruising companion.
