[1][4] The Grampian 26 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim.

It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a vertical transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel or centreboard.

[1] The boat was optionally factory-equipped with a Palmer gasoline engine or can be equipped with a small outboard motor for docking and maneuvering.

[5] Owners Dick and Theda Morris sailed their Grampian 26 from New York to Europe and cruised it there for two years.

It has a large cockpit, standing headroom throughout the length of the cabin, and one of the bigger v-berths that can be found on any size production sailboat.
