Default I was a Mac26X owner

I'd sell it and sail something else.

Well, according to the website they upgraded the carpet in the new
version. Are you sure you were looking at the new Mac? According to
Jim, they are so different that they may be hard to recognize Among
other improvements, they also claim to have more "windows". Perhaps
they permit a better view of the "porch"


Maybe they did, and I think there may have been more window space. Don't

get me
wrong: If someone were to give me a Mac, right now, I'd sail it.

I used to be all worried about whether a Mac was "Sea" worthy, until I

moved to
the coast and realized that the "sea" is no big deal and in fact is easier

to
sail on in many respects.

Obviously, I'm not going sailing in a storm or 40 knot winds. No body does
that, not in any boat. People sometimes get caught in that, but no one

chooses
to go there just because they have a "strong" boat.

Would a Mac (even the new Mac) break a mast in 40 knot winds? No, not if

the
sails were tied down like they should be on any boat in that condition.
