Operational history
In a review Michael McGoldrick wrote, "The Nash 26 ... is a relatively large 26 footer with a nice interior layout which includes the maximum in the way of cruising amenities for a boat in this size range. Despite the priority placed on interior space, it still has acceptable proportions for a cruising boat, although some later Nash 26s appear to have been built with a slightly boxy-looking cabin."
