C-Dory 26 Pro Angler Walkaround Fishing
1989–2005
The C-Dory 26 Pro Angler is a real, low-volume historical C-Dory fishing model documented in late-1980s/early-1990s factory literature and in later owner records. It uses a narrower cabin and walkaround-oriented fishing layout rather than the mainstream Cruiser arrangement; propulsion and year details vary among surviving examples.

Best for
- Owners prioritizing simple, trailerable pilothouse cruising or fishing
- Couples or small crews operating on inland and coastal waters
- Buyers who value shallow draft and outboard service access
Trade-offs
- Light hulls can have a lively ride when conditions and speed are poorly matched
- Compact cabin and side-deck arrangements limit interior volume
- Outboard-powered layouts trade inboard protection for serviceability and shallow draft
Known concerns
- No model-specific concern has been promoted to B-Atlas’s evidence threshold. This does not mean the model has no age-, condition- or hull-specific risks.
Inspection focus
- Verify exact model, year and hull identity because C-Dory reused related hulls and names over a long production history
- Inspect cored hull/deck areas around penetrations and previous hardware installations
- Inspect transom or outboard bracket structure and engine mounting
- Verify fuel-system, steering and electrical updates on older examples

About this record
B-Atlas preserves uncertainty: missing information remains unknown rather than being treated as a negative. Specifications and guidance describe the model record; individual boats can differ by year, equipment, refit and condition.
