Glacier Bay 2680 Value: A Market Report (2026)
An independent market report. We don’t sell boats or listings. Last reviewed June 2026. (The owner feedback below is sourced from boating forums and published reviews, and attributed.)
What’s a Glacier Bay 2680 worth? As of June 2026, used Glacier Bay 2680 Coastal Runners are listed (asking) from about $30,000 up to about $69,000, averaging around $49,500. Because the model is discontinued, condition and (especially) engine status drive value more than the year. A repowered, well-sorted boat sits near the top of that range; a tired, original-power one near the bottom. As an out-of-production power cat it sells roughly 10 to 15 percent under asking. Selling figures here are honest estimates, not recorded sales.
The Glacier Bay 2680 Coastal Runner is a 26 foot power catamaran with a near-legendary reputation for fuel economy and rough-water capability. Glacier Bay is no longer building boats, so every 2680 on the market is used, which makes condition and engines everything. Here’s the pricing picture and what owners actually say.
What it’s listed for (current market)
Compiled from current listings across the major sites (boats.com, Boat Trader, YachtWorld). Used 2680s run from about $30,000 (older, original-power boats) up to about $69,000 (clean, repowered examples), averaging near $49,500.
Value drivers (a discontinued boat)
With no model years still in production, year matters less than condition and engines. The bands below are organized by boat condition rather than a depreciation curve:
| Condition | Typical asking | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Repowered, well-sorted | $55,000 to $69,000 | observed high |
| Solid, original power, good hours | $42,000 to $55,000 | observed (avg ~$49.5K) |
| Older / tired / project | $30,000 and up | observed low |
The takeaway: on a discontinued power cat, buy the engines and the condition, not the year. A repowered 2680 at the top of the range can be the better value than a cheaper boat that’s about to need motors.
What it likely sells for
As an out-of-production power cat with a smaller buyer pool, the 2680 typically sells roughly 10 to 15 percent under asking, more on a boat that has sat or needs engines. A boat asking about $55K might trade around $47K to $49K. These are estimates, not recorded sales. Actual sold prices aren’t public.
How it holds value
Surprisingly steady at the bottom, capped at the top. Because it’s discontinued and well-loved, clean 2680s hold a firm floor, but the lack of new-boat support and the narrow cat market limit the ceiling.
What owners and reviewers say
Sourced from owner discussion and a used-boat review on boats.com, weighted by recurring themes.
What owners praise (often): excellent seakeeping, with one owner saying it “eats up most conditions”; outstanding economy (cruising 27 to 30 mph while burning only about 1.8 to 2 gph, with a roughly 40 mph top end); and a practical layout, a real cabin with a queen berth, seating for four, and rear-deck room to fish four anglers and six rods.
Common notes and gripes (some): it can be a bit finicky in beam seas (trimming the down-swell sponson helps); and, as a discontinued boat, parts and support take more legwork, so engine condition and prior updates matter enormously.
Overall sentiment is strongly positive on ride and economy, with the caveats that come with any out-of-production boat.
Also consider
World Cat 266 or 280 CC, Twin Vee 280, Aquila 28 Molokai, and a deep-V monohull like the Robalo R272 if a cat isn’t a must.
Methodology: Pricing compiled from current listing aggregates across the major sites (boats.com, Boat Trader, YachtWorld), last reviewed June 2026. As a discontinued power cat, value is organized by condition rather than model year, and used data is thin. Asking prices are observed; selling prices are estimates, not recorded sales. Owner sentiment is summarized and attributed. We don’t own a 2680. We don’t sell boats or listings. This is not a live data feed.
