2001 Sport Craft 261 Walk Around (5.7L TBI) — $10,500
Includes Trailer
The 2001 Sport Craft 261 Walk Around is a 26-foot, modified-V fiberglass outboard fishing platform ideal for fishing, cruising, and family outings. Known for a solid ride and practical layout, this model delivers offshore capability with the comfort of a true walk-around cabin design for anyone who wants a no-frills, workhorse boat with good rough-water handling and ample storage.
The 5.7 TBI, 4-Bolt Main is valued for its balance of power, reliability, and affordability. The Chevrolet 350 Small Block V8 with 5.7L TBI is a classic, versatile engine that blends proven small-block design with modern throttle-body fuel injection for improved efficiency and performance, making it a popular choice for many boaters. Built in the late 1990s through the early 2000s, it is considered a mid-level, durable boat of its era. It offers good stability and handling in rough water and can plane in chop when trimmed. Excellent for offshore and inshore work, the no-frills design prioritizes utility over luxury while remaining comfortable for long trips and capable of sustained offshore runs.
