We’re delighted to bring you the largest of the trailerable sailing yachts in the Viko range. The affordable lift-keel Viko S26 delivers a rare combination of light displacement, shallow draught and easy rigging for realistic trailability. Depending on the type of keel chosen the minimum draught starts at a beach friendly 35cm which makes it simple to float off a trailer and thanks to clever integrated mast lifting options the rig goes up in a jiffy. Starting at only 1650kg it is half a tonne lighter than the lift keel Beneteau 25.7 and over a tonne lighter than the lift keel Jeanneau 2500!  You would think that such trailer friendly characteristics would come at the expense of internal space and fittings. On the contrary, the S26 boasts class leading 1.8m headroom in the cabin, a sumptuous interior and a vast range of options to customise this cruiser to the owner’s requirements.

UK bound boats will come complete with a fixed mast support bar on the transom for trailering, a furling genoa with UV protection, a fully battened main sail and a lazyjack stack pack system. You can then opt to make these versatile cruisers suit your own personal sailing requirements with a range of further sailing configurations. So, if you want a dinghy-like boat you might opt for a tiller steered, super-light S26 with an easy-launch swing keel and transom mounted outboard.  If you prefer that big-yacht feel you might opt for a deep T-shape (lifting or fixed) bulb keel, steering wheel pedestal and in-board electric or diesel engine. Various rig options also exist too, including 2 sail plans and a separate bow platform with gennaker.

Viko can deliver absolute cockpit comfort too, including a sprayhood and cockpit enclosure, seat back rests, a cockpit shower and flexi teak on the deck and seats.

Luxury and comfort continues in the cavernous space below consisting of a large main cabin, separate heads compartment and rear cabin with giant double berth.  Customers can add to this by choosing different galley layouts, a fridge, marine heads, hot water and even heating!

So, there is bound to be a Viko S26 which fits your sailing dreams. With prices starting at £48,300 inc VAT  those dreams are surprisingly affordable.  We look forward to helping you make them a reality.
