2002 Landing School Landing School

This quintessential New England modern classic ‘spirit of tradition’ daysailer would be a perfect way to explore the Virgin Islands in style. The boat is primarily designed for day sailing, but she is also equipped with a V berth for weekend stays.

The hull is balanced, with relatively narrow beam, moderate displacement, fin keel, and a spade rudder. Stability comes from a low center of gravity rather than wide beam, thereby allowing the LS-26 Weekender to stay on her feet and maintain her balance. She also has 2 reef points on the mainsail for those windy days!

Built by Maine’s The Landing School in 2002, her cold molded construction is stiff, light and low maintenance when compared to a traditional wooden boat, yet she still boasts the beautiful construction details of a wooden boat. The Landing School reinforces and preserves traditional design and construction methods while advancing the art of boat building, design and maintenance through the integration of modern techniques and contemporary materials.

VIM is in near pristine condition and has received custom awlgrip, new mast and upgraded electronics in 2018 and a total rebuild on the engine in 2015. She would make a perfect weekend getaway yacht and is guaranteed to turn heads wherever she sails.

Includes AB dinghy with 15hp Yamaha outboard!
