The Catalina Capri 26, introduced in 1990, represents a strategic pivot for Catalina Yachts as it sought to blend the racing DNA of its Capri line with the interior volume expected of its traditional cruisers. Designed by the in-house team of Frank Butler and Gerry Douglas, the Capri 26 was built until roughly 1997, with approximately 320 units produced. Unlike its predecessor, the Capri 25—which was a performance-first boat with limited headroom—the Capri 26 was engineered to be a "performance family boat." Its most striking technical feature is its significant beam of 9' 10", which is exceptionally wide for a vessel with a 26-foot length overall. This width provided the buoyancy and interior volume necessary to offer amenities normally found on much larger yachts, such as an enclosed head and a dedicated aft cabin.
