. Hey,

let the real sailors discourage you from getting a Mac26X

or M. I
used to motor a Mac26X so I'm looking like a dumb ass .

They are
really crappy boats and it's no fun to be on the water in

them.
Don't buy one. Get a good used sailboat, instead
. Hint: there are some people who don't seem
to realize Macs depreciate by the minute. Some are dumb

and
they bought one five years ago for 25 grand then maybe

they should
sell it for four grand. I've looked at some real deals in

the past
week. Found a Mac26X with 50HP Yamaha and trailer for

10.5K and it looks
like it's in good shape. Mostly sat in this guy's back

yard covered with
a tarp.


there's a reason why it sat so much
