The Ericson 26-2, often designated as the 26 Mark II to distinguish it from its 1960s predecessor, represents the pinnacle of Bruce King’s small-yacht design philosophy during the mid-1980s. Launched in 1984 and produced until approximately 1988, this model was engineered to provide the feel and "big-boat" amenities of a 30-footer within a 26-foot footprint. Unlike the original Ericson 26, which featured more traditional lines and a lower profile, the 26-2 utilized a modern hull form with a significantly increased beam and the proprietary Tri-Axial Force Grid (TAFG). This internal structural system, a hallmark of the era’s Ericson builds, involved a pre-molded fiberglass grid bonded to the hull to distribute the loads from the mast, shroud chainplates, and keel, resulting in a remarkably rigid and durable platform.
