Description
The FORTIER 26 has been described as “designed by a fish”, “an honest sea boat for fishing and cruising” and “the safest, most attractive classic boat in its class”. Regardless of how you describe it, you don’t want to miss RUNNER. She is a 1988 edition of this highly sought after line and one of the 500+ boats built in MA by Fortier Boats.
With a traditional keel and skeg, Core-Cell foam in the deck and hull, and modern cabin amenities RUNNER makes an excellent fishing or family boat. She has just been completely re-fit and upgraded including engine and exhaust systems, canvas and radar arch, electronics, batteries, windlass, head, and lighting. Additionally, she has a beautiful custom-made tiller and “vintage” Fortier cockpit boxes.
RUNNER is stunning to look at and ready for action. She can be seen by appointment in Milford, CT.

Lynn fell in love with sailing and the boating lifestyle when she moved to the East Coast to work as a young adult. She understands that boating can be a wonderful, but daunting, experience. Her belief is that owning a boat should be positive, and buying and selling should be both professional and personalized to the needs of her clients.
Lynnâs insights and expertise have been gained through her extensive cruising, certification coursework, sailing, navigation and safety instruction, and earning her USCG Masters License. She was a boat owner for more than 25 years having both power and sail and is active in her local yacht club. Professionally, Lynn learned about boats, boaters and the industry as Marketing Director for Brewer Yacht Yards which included 26 locations. With the 2017 acquisition of Brewer Yacht Yards by Safe Harbor Marinas, she was appointed Director of Member Experience for the 80+ national locations.
Lynn has two adult sons who were raised in, on, and around the water and are still messing about with boats for work and pleasure. They have provided additional perspectives on boating, life and boat choices.
As an American Sailing Association and US Sail & Power Squadron Instructor and private captain, Lynn loves empowering people in boating, especially women. She understands that boating can be fabulous if all onboard feel safe, comfortable, and confident. That starts with the selection of the right boat for your lifestyle.
Contact Lynn to help with your decision-making process whether youâre buying or selling a boat. She can be reached at 203.979.5565 or loliver@breweryacht.com.
