You are an experienced blue water sailor; you owned a Tartan 37 for
several years and sailed in high-traffic waters around NJ and NY; you
participate in PHRF races; you are a long-time participant on this ng,
during which time you providee advice to novice sailors as to how to
sail, rig, and maintain their boats....and you expect us to believe your
ridiculous story about buying a Mac 26M?

Give us a break.

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.
