I certainly wouldn't want to take a Mac offshore direct, but you could
always throw it on a trailer and drive it to New England. In fact, I would
think that one of the primary virtues of that boat.

This is probably the best advice. Long distances in small boats are often
best covered on the road via a trailer. We have some friends who've just
returned from two weeks in the North Channel with their 21' swing-keel boat.
They trailered it to DeTour. The sail up Lake Michigan from here would have
required at least 4 very long, hard days of sailing/motoring on that boat
just to reach DeTour.
