Vessel Overview

Highest passenger capacity rating in its class
This fleet of Duffy 26s represents an exceptional opportunity for a resort, marina, municipality, or private operator seeking dependable, USCG-certified vessels for passenger transport or sightseeing. With two proven boats currently in service and one brand-new 2026 model complete and ready to launch, the package offers both immediate earning potential and long-term operational flexibility.
Construction and Design
The hull is molded in solid fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP) with a vinylester skin layer and full-length, foam-cored longitudinal stringers. A solid fiberglass skeg and full keel protect the propeller and enhance tracking, while PVC spray rails are through-bolted and glassed internally for long-term strength and durability.
The interior deck and seating are a single molded FRP structure with foam coring, finished in Aristo Blue Awlgrip and Moon Dust non-skid. Engine mounting brackets are through-bolted to the stringers, and all systems are designed for easy access and maintenance.
Power and Systems
Each vessel is powered by the optional 80HP Yanmar 4JH4 diesel engine, paired with a durable transmission and dripless shaft system. The engine compartment includes a soundproofed FRP enclosure, tilt-forward access, fiberglass drip pan, high-water alarm, and fixed fire-suppression system.
Dual automatic bilge pumps, LED safety lighting, and a redundant drainage system ensure reliability and safety during commercial operation.
Traditional helm steering paired to a 316 stainless steel rudder and post provide precise low-speed control for docking and confined waters.
Passenger Safety and Comfort
Passenger areas are surrounded by polished 316 stainless steel handrails, with an additional custom safety rail at the boarding step. Each vessel features the optional full canopy and side curtain enclosure, allowing for comfortable, all-weather operation in both warm and cool climates.
