Huh? Either they're appropriate to the size of a 26 ft boat or not that
should go offshore. They're no appropriate on so many levels that I
would
run out of bandwidth trying to post them. It's deficient rigging. I've
seen it.

Find your own examples. I'm not interested in doing your homework for
you.

In other words, you simply don't have a rational response and can't come
up one. Is that about the size of it Ganz?

Jim





The size of it is that you are unable to substantiate your own claims
and
want me to do your work for you... sorry, not my job.


What "claims" are you talking about Ganz? Have I made any "claims" that
the Mac26M is a good boat for extended offshore cruising? Have I made
any "claims" that it is a good boat for ocean crossings? Have I made any
"claims" that I would want to take it offshore for extended blue water
cruising? (Helpful hint: Not. - Just the opposite. In fact, I have
stated in several posts that it wouldn't be good choice for extended
crossings or the like.)

Neal, I think it would be helpful if you took the time to actually read
my notes before you post any more of those indignant, sarcastic, snooty
replies.

Jim


Where does the silly term "extended off shore cruising" come from? The
Mac26M is
unfit for many conditions found regularly on a day sail near shore.


Certainly offshore cruising around here...
