Notes:
After a glowing review of the FRANCIS 26 in 'Yachting World', production was ramped up in the UK as the VICTORIA 26, which has the same hull as FRANCIS 26 but with a taller coach roof aft and shallow well forward of the mast.
Hulls were built by Northshore Shipyard.
Fractional sloop, cutter, and masthead sloop rig options were available.
Headroom: Flush deck: 4.66ft
Renamed the Victoria 800 in 1990.
