REDUCED! New to the market is one of the most popular West Coast boats, the 26’ Hourston Island Runner- and this one is diesel! Born to Run is powered by a reliable Volvo KAD43P-A engine with just 370 hours. This is a fantastic boat for commuting or cruising the coast. The cockpit features plenty of comfortable seating. Up front is a very roomy buddy cabin to port, v-berth with lots of headroom, storage space, and head with macerator pump. Cruise year round thanks to a Bimini top, windows, drop curtain, and slope back canvas package. Don’t miss your chance to own a Pacific Northwest legend. Ask us about moorage availability. Call anytime for an appointment to view.
