That is not with in the spirit of this ng. we all read every single word
posted here because it is our duty to siphon and funnel the miscreants into
some semblance of acceptance. You have already admitted your transgression
of buying a Mac, have promised to stop whining, and have indicated you're
going to start sailing, so we've had some positive effect on you. You had
purchased the sad piece of fiberglass before we could do anything about it,


This isn't what happened at all. I posted my questions several times on
this an on the cruising ng and scanned the reponses for over a month
hoping to get some factual or substantive information regarding the 26M.
It was only after weeks of "Mac bashings" from contributors who, for
the most part, had never even seen the 26M, much less sailed her, that I
concluded that the Mac-Bashers were actually the ones with the problems,
not the answers.

but oh, well...at least the money goes into the US economy...

Yes, at least the California economy will benefit.
