Default I was a 26 M owner

Hi all. I owned a Mac26M for 3 weeks. I couldn't stand the thing. It
was horrible. I live near Philly and bought the Mac from A1 sailboats
in MD. They are nice folks and I have no qualms with them. But the
boat itself was God awfull. Wouldn't plane, and I had a Merc Big Foot
50 , steered horrible under power. Can't sail worth a damn. Won't
point at all. Wallows dangerously downwind and is slow slow SLOW to
boot. I took it back to the dealer and because of a paper screw up I
was reimbursed 98% of my money.
I am now trying to decide weather to buy a real sailboat and a jetski
or a power boat and a small sailing skiff. I will be moving to the
Annapolis area come July.

This is obviously a troll. In the first place, an experienced sailor
like yourself, indoctrinated with the ng propaganda against the Macs,
would never have bought one in the first place. In the second place, you
are obviously puttin us on, because the Mac26M clearly doesn't have any
of the characteristics you claim for it. It planes easily, points high,
and is fast, fast, fast.

Try to think of something else, Bobby.
