SPAM!! Are sales of Mac 26 down the tubes?
SPAM!!
If 'getting back to your home port safely & quickly' is your primary
concern, you should NOT leave the dock, and definitley should NOT be buying
a sailboat (or a Mac26X-M ).

I don't intend to take the Mac out more than 100 miles or so from shore.
I do recognize that it wasn't designed for ocean crossings.

The Mac 26 is designed by a genius team..
Sailing is very dependent on the wind.. and if it dies down..
one can get back to home port safely and quickly.. dependably.
THat is worth its weight in gold.
W hat does one do sailing to Catalina Island.. 12 miles
offshore and the wind goes down to a zepher..
I sail a C&C 27 Mark III and love it because of its
performance with the Hood Sails and its wonderful lines.
I rarely motor the Atomic 4 engine.. often sailing
directly into the mooring through a narrow harbour
entrance, along a long main harbour, making a turn
into a smaller harbour, with a challenging current,
into my 12 foot mooring.. singlehanded.
