If you wanted to sail the boat around the world, you could do it. The

The Mac is a costal cruiser not because of it's "strength" but because if

it's
size. I don't care what kind of boat a person has--if it's 26 feet long,

it can
only cary so much food an water.



A friend of mine recently circumnavigated in a 27 foot boat. You can
be sure, however, that no one would ever select ANY Macgregor for a
trip like that, and especially not one of the X/M ****boxes.
