Years ago, while returning some distance from a regatta, my engine decided to stop. I started it up and found it would run at about 1/2 throttle. Motored that way for 45 miles. Took the Racor primary fuel filter apart and I was shocked that any fuel could have gone through at all! Solid black.

Try a 30-1. I have no idea what your budget is, but it appears what some are suggesting is in a different dollar area than the 26 you were considering. The 30-1 has space, is the stiffest they ever built and can be equipped with enough amenities for cruising. The Vee berth can handle two
