2001 Four Winns 260 Horizon

Step aboard and you’ll notice how the 260 Horizon feels bigger than 26 feet. The deep, secure cockpit and tall bow freeboard give everyone a confident, dry ride when the afternoon chop kicks up. Helm visibility is excellent, with an intuitive dash layout that keeps gauges and switches right where you expect them. Passengers gravitate toward the plush, wraparound seating and the oversized swim platform, which becomes the social hub at anchor. Thoughtful touches—like plenty of stainless grab rails, clever under-seat storage, and a walk-through windshield that doesn’t pinch the deck space—make day boating simple. It’s the kind of layout that easily shifts from watersports basecamp to sunset cocktail cruiser.

In busy local waters where weekends mean packed sandbars and lively raft-ups, the 260 Horizon really shines. Its wide beam and generous seating let you bring a full crew without feeling cramped, while the deep-V hull handles the confused wakes and afternoon breezes with confidence. Shallow-draft friendliness makes it easy to nose onto beaches or slide into smaller slips at marinas and waterfront restaurants. When the breeze cools off in the evening, the secure bow and protected cockpit keep everyone comfortable for the ride home. For boaters who split time between tow sports, cruising, and hanging out at anchor, this model fits the area’s all-purpose lifestyle perfectly.
