Does anyone have any actual experience with the Mac 26M?

Scout... I have some though at this point in time... minimal
compared to other posters such as Jim Cate.

I acquired a used 2004 M with a Honda 50 earlier this year. I
sail it out in the Channel Islands area just off the coast of
California between Ventura and Oxnard.

Thus far... at least for me... I have enjoyed it. And yeh
it certainly has it's limitations. (smile) When I think of the
Mac... this old phrase comes to my mind... "a jack of all
trades but a master at none".

IMHO... Roger MacGregor realized there was/is a niche market
for this type of trailerable vessel and has done quite well in exploit-
ing it.

I would suggest visiting the following moderated forum:

We have 1470 registered members and I am certain some of the
"regulars" will be perfectly candid and forthright in answering any
of your questions.

Best regards
