How slow is the Mac26 under sail? I tried to check. Found a SF Bay
site that listed the Mac 26 as PHRF 221, Morgan OI as 216 (amazing)
and the Westsail 32 as 222.

That's the older model Mac26, not the 26X. I have only seen one
"provisional" rating on the Mac26X and it was around 250, issued to a
guy on the Chesapeake who sailed it with no ballast and a crew on trapezes.

I suspect that a fair PHRF rating for this boat, with the factory sails,
to be somewhere around 320.

BTW Morgan Out Islands came in many different sizes... are you seriously
going to compare the Mac26X to an OI41?
