Who has seen one sailing?

I have. It was pretty pathetic. We couldn't figure out what was wrong. We
came into Muskegon Lake from the channel on main and half jib, and let out
the furler as we passed the marker buoy...the Mac 26X was up ahead of us
with everything out, which is not considerable...dinky sails...and was
making way at about 2 knots to our 5...and the wind was blowing about
10-12...at first we thought maybe they were on a bad point of sail but when
we paralleled them we kept our speed and zoomed on past...the hull
configuration is just all wrong to sail...either that or they need to stick
on a stouter, taller mast, a longer boom and get some sails that will make
all that weight move. Ugly things...would rather have an old fixer upper
with a leak than a new Mac26X
