I own a newer version the 273 chase (2004). I can tell you about that boat which should be very similar.....hull wise. Engines might be a major difference 2 stroke vs 4 stroke. If you want to hear from my advantage/disadvantage point of view.....Pm me, also there are a few 26 chase owners out there, I'm sure someone will respond to you from that group also.

I have an 2001 263 chase w/twin 200 hpdi's, love the boat we have had it for 4yrs and bottom fish in the gulf and it suites our needs fine. We also trailer it from Ga. to Fla. (325mi.) which works well and that was a factor when we purchased to stay w/a 8'6" beam....tows well.
