The Sonata 26 is a sailboat that was designed by American Gary Mull.[1][2][3][4]
The Sonata 26 is a development of the Sonata 8. The two boats share the same specifications.[1][4]
Production[edit]
The boat was built by Investigator Yachts in Australia, who completed 66 examples, starting in 1980. The design is out of production.[1][4]
Design[edit]
The Sonata 26 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, a transom-hung rudder and a lifting or optional fixed fin keel. It displaces 2,822 lb (1,280 kg) and carries 500 lb (227 kg) of ballast.[1][4]
The boat has a draft of 5.09 ft (1.55 m) with the lifting keel down and 0.69 ft (0.21 m) with the keel up. A fixed keel version was also built with a draft of 5.2 ft (1.6 m)[1][4]
The design has a hull speed of 5.96 kn (11.04 km/h).[4]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
