Oldport 26 for sale in Newport, RI

Introducing Kaymar, a 1996 Old Port Marine 26 center console launch, custom fit for enjoyment as a "picnic boat" or open cockpit recreational launch. Kaymar has a full keel, semi-displacement hull with classic Down-east style featuring a high flared entry, built-in spray rails, and a wide beam carrying back to the transom. The design makes her roomy, stable in choppy seas, highly maneuverable (she can be turned in either direction, in a boat length), and easy to drive. The high sheer forward, gracefully tapers to a low sheer aft, giving her stability and providing passengers' easy access to the water, docks, and rafts.

The hull is crafted of hand-laid fiberglass, ensuring durability and stability. Awlgripped in 2025. Kaymar is powered by a reliable, fuel efficient Yanmar 4JH2-DT turbocharged diesel engine, and cruises comfortably at 12 knots. The engine has just 1015 hours.

Kaymar is equipped with a cuddy forward with a vee-berth and cushions, LED reading lights, storage shelves with teak trim port and starboard, tool storage locker, and two storage cabinets with teak doors and counters, one with a spigot for freshwater. Four portholes and Lewmar hatch with screen provide ventilation and light. The lockable teak cuddy entry doors provide secure storage and privacy for the portable head stowed under the cockpit. Two aft cockpit scuppers and an automatic bilge pump help keep the deck and bilge dry.

The helmsman's station is just aft of the engine box and houses the hydraulic steering control, engine controls, Ritchie "Helmsman" compass, VHF radio, engine gauges, chart plotter, and electronic equipment. The 5-circuit electrical panel is installed in the station with a clear cover. The engine box has soundproofing, recessed handles, and is fitted with a seating cushion. At the helmsman station is the cushioned helmsman's seat, with storage under for 12V battery, power switch, signal kit, and other essentials. Teak doors, port and starboard, provide easy access to the storage.

Kaymar is a truly unique boat, well maintained, and ready for your immediate enjoyment.
