You can sail the Mac 75 miles off shore. A guy went around the world in

a
23
foot boat (see the movie The Dove). You can sail any boat 75 miles off

shore.

But everyone wants to act like one boat is better in a storm than

another
boat.
BS. If I were 75 miles off shore and got into a squall in a Mac, like I

would
with any damn boat, I'd lower the sails and run with it. Or I'd roll out

just a
little jib and try to keep head to wind.

I mean, you're not really going to ask me to believe that a Valient 40

is
better off in 30 ft breaking waves than a Mac are you?

Any 26 ft boat should sail the coast line (5-10 miles off shore), not

cross the
ocean. But if you don't get hit by a storm, it really doesn't matter,

does
it?
