After wading through many past posts about the MacGregor,
among them an excellent review done by Chuck, according
to the salts I will never be sailing on the MacGregor.
Hell, I can have the motor hanging lifeless on the transom, 6 feet of
dagger board down, 300 sq ft of sail filled with air, and be clipping
along at 8 knots or so, but I won't be sailing on the MacGregor.
So that means no work! Pretty neat (-:


It's a terrible boat. Caveat emptor.


Harry, as the last sentence of the above para I had written:
MacGregors are to "sailors" as Bayliners are to "Krauses."
I snipped it.
Here you are, so that didn't work.
Anyway, thanks for the heads up. I'm far from sold on it.
But if I get one, I sure as hell ain't coming back here.
