Classic Toughness Meets Modern Versatility: 1987 Shamrock 26' Stalker (Keel Drive)
Looking for a boat that doesn't just ride on the water, but conquers it? We are proud to present this 1987 Shamrock 26’, a legendary "Keel Drive" vessel that offers a level of stability and protection rarely found in modern center consoles.
Known as the "pocket battleship" of the boating world, the Shamrock 26 is built for the purist who values a low center of gravity, a clean transom for fishing, and the peace of mind that comes with a protected running gear.
The Shamrock Advantage: The Keel Drive
Unlike outboards or standard I/Os, this Shamrock features a full-length integrated keel.
• Running Gear Protection: Your prop and rudder are shielded by the fiberglass keel. If you frequent shallow flats or areas with debris, this boat is your insurance policy.
• Unmatched Stability: With the engine weight centered and low in the hull, this boat tracks like it’s on rails, even in a heavy beam sea.
• 360-Degree Fishability: No outboards to wrap your line around. The transom is completely clear, making it a dream for offshore trolling or bottom fishing.

• Spacious Cockpit: Massive deck space for a 26-footer, perfect for multiple divers or a full tournament crew.
• Heavy-Duty Hardware: True to the era, the deck hardware and construction are "over-built," providing a solid, quiet ride that modern lightweight hulls can't replicate.
Broker’s Note
"The 26 Shamrock is a cult classic for a reason. It’s a 'honest' boat—no gimmicks, just a heavy, stable, and incredibly seaworthy platform. Whether you're looking for a rugged workhorse, a coastal cruiser, or a platform for a full restoration project, this Keel Drive is the gold standard of 1980s engineering."
