I love my 1986 Cruisers Holiday 26 that I restored last year. I have not encountered a cruiser with a larger cabin than this model in the 25 thru 28' range.
Are there other Cruiser Holiday owners on the forum? I believe the holiday was made in a 25' and 26' versions from 1983 thru 1992.

I own a 2000 model 3375 and love it. We have owned 10 boats and this one is the most impressive from a design standpoint.
We do not own a Holiday but I would value opinions on Cruisers boats from the 80's (sorry to hi-jack the thread). They are very attractive boats in my opinion. I am curious as to the build quality in those years. I assume the used balsa in the hull back then as well - any known issues with that?

My wife and I purchased a 1987 Elegante 2970 earlier this year with twin 350/270hp. The boats'; [revious owners converted the seating around the captains chari into a small area and installed two bar stools into the engine bay covers.
We have had some issues with the v-drives dripping but otherwise love the boat.

I have a 1981 Cruisers Holiday 25. My family & I have enjoyed this boat for the past 9 years, can't seem to upgrade. It's been very reliable & seaworthy on Lake Erie. I bought the boat as a project before it was going to be scrapped. Even though a newer, larger boat would be nice I just can't seem to part with this one.

Hello!
Xanadu, your boat sure looks good. I wish we could have one like yours but my sister won't approve of it. She really is afraid of the waters and taking a boat.
