Someone posted a link to an owner's Mac page, he loved his boat and thought
it sailed pretty well, but then he made the statement that "he hadn't sailed
any other boats" so he nothing to compare it to. I don't hate Macs, I do
feel a little sorry for the folks that spend 25k for something like this
mainly because they don't feel confident enough to buy a used boat for their
first sailboat.

We have at least 5 in my marina, ironic considering you only have to
motor
about 500' or so before you can put up the sails. I have seen them
putzing
about under sail, have even seen one under full power heading directly
upwind, quite a sight.I even have photographic evidence that they do
sail.

And I have only seen one in the "full power" mode.

The only review of the Mac26X that appeared in a magazine that
could be characterized as unbiased was the one that ran in "Practical
Sailor", you have to wonder what they were trying to say, they didn't
actually sail the boat.

Who does?

Who here has seen a Mac26X motoring along? Plenty

Who has seen one sailing? None
