Congratulations on the NS 26, you have made an excellent choice. I did alot of research before I bought my "big cruising boat" and decided on a Nonsuch 30. Can't say enough good things about the design and build quality, the only negative being that in the end I couldn't afford the maintenance. I think the NS26 is the only Nonsuch with a solid, non-cored hull. There is a very active Nonsuch mailing list that you should join. They were a wonderful resource when I owned my boat. I am very happy with my M17 but if I ever get the big boat cruising bug, an NS26 is on my short list.

That's a good move, Dick. From an M23 to a NS26. That's the proper
progression. That's keeping it in the
Hess family. :-) NS' are fabulous boats. --Craig

I have an old Minn Kota 12lbs thrust trolling motor that I used fly fishing on the Fall River in N.California for years. "Bones" sent me a small AGM battery that would be ideal for powering the motor, my only reservation though is that it is a fresh water motor with what appears to be a chrome plated leg and I wonder how long it might last in salt water and if there were any way to coat the vunerable parts. Dick ex M23 now NS26
