I have no trouble with someone choosing a Mac because they want to trailer it
to
flat water lakes. That's what its designed for. But not for taking it
offshore.

What do you mean, "off shore"? And what do you mean, "flat water lakes"? When I
sailed a Mac, it was on a lake that was either dead calm or a squall. The only
sailing I know about with a Mac is during squalls. Now that I live on the
coast, I'd rather have a squall off shore than in the back bay. At least out
there I have room.

And don't talk about sailing pasts Macs as if that's a qualification for your
claim that they are no good. I watched a regatta the other week and a 40 ft
boat with full crew ran aground. We thought they were joking. We couldn't
figure out why they weren't turning the boat. It wasn't the boat--they just
didn't know how to sail.
