Larson Cabrio 260: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Larson Cabrio 260 is a newly introduced model measuring 26 feet 6 inches in length, designed with families in mind. It combines manageable handling for docking with the comfort and convenience desired for cruising on larger bodies of water. Its unique combination of beam and length offers a stable and comfortable ride, making it an excellent choice for those stepping up into cruising.
Exterior Design and Deck Features
The Cabrio 260 features a stepped hull design that elevates the stern, enhancing planing performance and minimizing bow rise for a smoother ride. At the bow, an anchor roller is positioned between split navigation lights, and foot controls for the windlass are conveniently mounted on the deck. A spotlight is mounted atop the bow railing to aid navigation in low light conditions, while a large hatch in the bow provides natural light and ventilation below deck. The windshield includes a starboard-side wiper and a center walkthrough for easy forward access. The stern is equipped with pop-up cleats, a freshwater connection, an integral swim platform with a telescoping ladder, a tow eye, and grab bars to facilitate boarding.
Bridge and Helm Station
The helm station is thoughtfully arranged with a chart space protected by a clear cover above the instrument panel. The instrument layout includes a digital depth finder and analog gauges, with rocker switches for power control and ample space below for additional flat panel displays. A notable feature is the Genmar weight share touch control located to the right of the wheel, providing assistance during breakdowns or breaks. The helm seat is adjustable with tilt, slide, swivel, and bolster functions for comfort. Companion seating includes an L-shaped bench that can be converted into a full-length sun pad by unlatching and extending a brace. Additionally, a front-facing bench can be unstowed from the stern to increase seating capacity. A removable table with two cupholders completes the social area. On the starboard side, a wet bar includes a speaker, sink with faucet, grab rail, and storage underneath.
Engine and Power Plant
The engine compartment is accessed via a hatch supported by gas struts, revealing a well-organized space that accommodates a 5.7 GI Volvo power plant alongside a generator, water heater, and batteries. Despite the compact size, the engine bay provides sufficient room for maintenance and service.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the Cabrio 260 offers comfortable accommodations optimized for overnight stays. The forward berth features a novel design that avoids the typical U-shaped configuration; instead, cushions can be pulled out and lowered to create two lengthwise sleeping spaces suitable for adults. This area is equipped with reading lights and speakers. Adjacent is a seating area with a table and facing bench. The galley is well-appointed with a plant shelf, microwave, sink with pull-out showerhead, coffee maker, single burner cooktop, grab rail, and refrigerator. Additional storage is available nearby, along with a CD stereo system featuring Sirius satellite radio and a flat panel TV. The stern berth provides a spacious bed with natural light from a portal and reading lights for comfort.
Head and Sanitary Facilities
The head compartment is accessed through a wood door and includes a pump-out toilet, a stainless steel sink with a pull-out faucet that doubles as a shower, and storage beneath a molded vanity. This arrangement offers practical functionality for extended cruising.
Performance and Handling
The Cabrio 260 weighs 5,850 pounds and has a beam of 9 feet 2 inches, requiring 36 inches of draft with the drive down. During testing, the boat demonstrated smooth handling and quick responsiveness, particularly in tight docking situations. It accelerated from a standstill to planing in 5.8 seconds and reached 30 miles per hour in 12.2 seconds. The optimal cruising speed was recorded at 25.6 miles per hour at 3,500 RPM, consuming 10 gallons per hour and providing a range of approximately 194 miles. At full throttle, the boat achieved a top speed of 38.1 miles per hour at 4,800 RPM, with a range of 119 miles. Overall, the Cabrio 260 handles confidently in crowded marinas and performs well as a family cruiser.
Conclusion
The Larson Cabrio 260 presents a compelling package for families seeking a manageable yet comfortable cruiser capable of longer trips. Its thoughtful design, stable hull, versatile interior accommodations, and reliable performance make it a practical choice for those entering the cruising lifestyle with confidence and convenience.
