Ovidio,
Welcome aboard!
I'm not familiar with your boat, but I'll take a stab at answering your question since I have a 26 foot boat that I've taken
offshore single-handed,several times. I tried to run some numbers on your boat, but I wasn't sure if the info.I had was for the Gary Mull design, or not. Regardless, it looks like your boat is a little heavier than mine, and has a deeper
draft. My boat weighs in at 4300lbs.,with a shoal
draft keel of 3'2".IMO, taking a 26 ft.boat offshore is a question of the skippers experience, boat systems,and back up systems.I've got some good experience under my belt, and my boat is equipped as well as any larger offshore capable boat. I carry all USCG recommended
safety equipment, the boat has an
autopilot,GPS
chartplotter,and hand-held back up
GPS unit.I plot my boats position on a hard chart every hour. I've modified the boat to carry 43 gallons of fresh
water, and can use the
outboard off my
dinghy for a back-up
power supply should my inboard
diesel give problems. When crossing the Gulfstream, I rented an
Epirb. I constantly watch the
weather.Even with all these precautions, I've been hammered severly twice by unforcasted low pressure systems. The boat has taken 62 mph
wind in a storm, and faired o.k., but I know if I get caught in anything more, the results may not be pretty. It's an acceptable risk to me though. In summary to your question, I would say your boat could safely be taken offshore, if both you,and the boat are properly prepared, watch
weather patterns religiously, and not push yourself to meet any kind of set schedule.
