    So who HAS sailed a MacGregor?

    Tim No apologies necessary. I was commenting on your P.S. and truly do not understand the reason people badmouth sailors cause of their boats, and that............ only since I bought the 26M for obvious reasons. The only thing that comes to mind are 3things: 1. They wish to make me aware that...

    So who HAS sailed a MacGregor?

    Should I also get a Beneteau? I find it really difficult to understand the mind set of (people) who dump on sailors because of their choice of boats. I don't mind (don't like it ) but don't mind being called to order because of my un seamanship like actions when handling any one of my boats...

    So who HAS sailed a MacGregor?

    I've sailed a 26M for years, I also manned the wheel of a RCN destroyer Different boat different feeling. I prefer my 26M cause I don't have 3 people telling me one after another port 10, port 10 port 10 before I can take a swing to port!:):):) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSV1NpFn8Uc At...

It might be a bit tender for regular sail boat guys but it rounds up and is steady as she goes. I got one because I...

    A dilema - how to annoy myself?

    I managed to bring her over some 40 odd degrees and the polycarbonate wine glasses didn't break. But she just slips nicely into the marina at extreme low tide 2 feet of water and does 10.9 knots wing on wing in 10 foot swells and 23mph as stink pot pulling the kids on the wake board. God I...
