Is your boat still at Hayden Island?? I just put mine in at Salpare Bay Marina. Getting ready to start my own adventures. Your videos have made me ready to get after some great adventures as well. Thanks for the videos and hope to see you on the waterway!!!
I have an 09 26M and I love it. as far and any real sailor knows that the macs are power sailors, not typical sailboats, its like comparing a speed boat to a houseboat. they are simply in seperate catagories. power sailors are not just trailor sailors. see the odin/imexus and the new hunter to compare that MAC to.
Watched all your video and they are well worth the time. Good and fair appraisal of the MacGregor Pros and Con. As for the comments about the Macsnot being real sailboat, me think they are just jealous that you can do this while keeping the cost down and the flexibility to go anywhere. I would never get a fixed keel sailboat unless I wanted to do some serious bluewater and have a boat load of cash to support the habit. After all 30 footers + are expensive to buy and keep year round.
Come on, guys. At least he's out there doing it & having fun with it. Everyone starts sailing as a novice. After 40 years of sailing, I'd say I've still things to learn. We don't have to watch. But some of us can relate to a cold, wet, fiberglass boat.
You have no idea what your talking about I have an 06 Macgregor 26m and I have sailed it from Miami to the Bahamas, a 90 mile venture in open blue water so until you know what your talkinga about say nothing.
Did not mean to offend anyone. Any serious sailor would not own a Macgregor 26...absolutely no one. I know what I am talking about and stand by my previous post.

After watching only 3 minutes of this, I realize that you are not a real sailor and your boat is not a real sailboat. Enough.

Real sailors don't dump on other sailors. And it is true his boat is not a sailboat in a 26M.
