The design was built by ETAP Yachting in Belgium between 1994 and 2006, but it is now out of production.[1][4]
Design
The ETAP 26i is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of glassfibre, with wood trim. It has a fractional sloop rig, a plumb stem, a reverse transom with steps, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a tiller and a fixed fin keel or optional dual tandem keels. It displaces 5,071 lb (2,300 kg) and carries 1,433 lb (650 kg) of iron ballast, with either keel.[1][5]
The boat has a draft of 3.77 ft (1.15 m) with the standard keel and 2.95 ft (0.90 m) with the optional tandem keels.[1]
The boat is fitted with a Swedish Volvo Penta 2010 10 hp (7 kW) diesel engine with a saildrive, for docking and manoeuvring. The fuel tank holds 49 litres (11 imp gal; 13 US gal).[1][3][5]
The design has sleeping accommodation for four people, with a double "V"-berth in the bow cabin and an aft cabin with a double berth on the port side. The galley is located on the port side just forward of the companionway ladder. The galley is "L"-shaped and is equipped with a two-burner stove, an ice box and a sink. A navigation station is opposite the galley, on the starboard side. The head is located opposite the galley, on the starboard side, aft of the navigation station.[1][3][5]
For sailing downwind the design may be equipped with an asymmetrical spinnaker.[1][3]
Operational history
The boat was at one time supported by a class club, the ETAP Owners Association.[6]
