The Anderson 26 is a rare, highperformance liftingkeel cruiser developed in the early 1980s as the "big brother" to the legendary Anderson 22. Designed by the renowned British naval architect Oliver Lee—famous for the Squib, Hunter 19, and Hunter 701—the boat was built by the Whitstablebased yard Anderson, Rigden & Perkins. While the smaller 22foot variant saw a production run of nearly 180 units, the Anderson 26 remains an elusive "wellkept secret" among coastal sailors, with only approximately 12 to 14 hulls completed before the builder’s closure in 1982. The design philosophy was heavily influenced by the aftermath of the 1979 Fastnet race, prioritizing structural integrity and seaworthiness in a trailerable, shallowdraft package.
