BTW, I'm strongly considering a Mac 26M.
What is your opinion of that boat?




Cheap, lightly built, ugly, trailer motor sailer for cheap, lightweight,
stupid buyers who couldn't make an informed, worthwhile purchase if his
life depended on it.

Oh, and you have no pride or self-worth. People who admit they bought or
consider buying a MacGregor 26 are proven to have no self-esteem. How
could they while making such a totally uninformed purchase and
lose-your-hat investment?

So scuttling the Mac idea, what do you recommend?
I need = 2' draft, decent live aboard accommodation for 2,
no more than 30k ready-to-go.
No blue water or heavy weather sailing.
Used mostly for gunkholing West Florida and the Keys.
You sure seem to know your boats, so any advice appreciated.
