2006 Larson Cabrio 260

Step aboard and the first thing you notice is how much beam Larson squeezed into 26 feet—the Cabrio 260 feels more like a mini express cruiser than a pocket weekender. The molded swim platform is generous enough for gearing up water toys or dangling your feet at anchor, and the walkthrough transom keeps traffic flowing without climbing over cushions. At the helm, sightlines are better than many boats this size thanks to the upright seating position and clean dash layout. Down below, headroom is surprisingly forgiving, and the mid-cabin doesn’t feel like an afterthought—more like a tucked‑away den. Thoughtful touches, like integrated steps to the foredeck and smartly placed grab rails, make moving around underway feel secure and intuitive.

In these waters, conditions can swing from flat calm mornings to choppy afternoon wind waves, and the Cabrio 260’s deep‑V hull handles that shift with confidence. Its size is ideal for hopping between nearby harbors and coves while still being manageable for a small crew or even a capable solo skipper. The efficient single‑engine setup keeps fuel stops and maintenance in check, which suits boaters who want long weekends aboard rather than long hours in the yard. With a real cabin, enclosed head, and functional cockpit layout, it’s equally comfortable for quick sunset cruises, rafting up with friends, or stretching a weekend into three nights on the hook.
