Default MacGregor 26M - Valiant 40

No. You let it go. You're the newbie fool. You're the one
making an even bigger fool out of himself with each post.
I'll be here long after you're gone and your piece of junk is
in the trash heap.

Then why are you sticking around in this discussion, John? Can't let it

go?

Actually, I've been posting notes to this ng since 1997, and I've been
sailing for some 30 years. You ought to listen to us older, experienced
sailors, Johanthan.

You're a liar and a fraud as best as I can tell. You're an old fool
at best.

Wrong again, Johnny. Check the notes posted on this newsgroup in March
of 1997, and thereafter.

Johnny, I was posting notes on this newsgroup seven years ago. Unless
you were here earlier than 1997, that makes you the "newguy".

Uhhhh Jim.... How's Rog these days?

__________________________________________________ _-

Uhhhh, (Elpolvo???), actually, I don't know Roger, and I don't work for
MacGregor, and I don't own a MacGregor, and I don't often sail a
MacGregor, and I sail a Cal 34 rather than a Mac, and my favorite
cruising boat is the Valiant 40 rather than the Mac. But hey,
"Elpolvo," instead of posting sarcastic putdowns, how about addressing
the substance of what I was saying. I was certainly NOT trying to push
the Mac 26 as a suitable boat for extended blue water passagemaking,
but rather, I merely pointed out some of the features that are often
overlooked by the poor souls who have made huge investments in heavy
boats, and who usually leave them tied up to the dock (all the time
paying the substantial marina bills) because they can seldom get them
out to the blue water over a weekend. There are thousands and thousands
of beautiful boats docked in the marinas in our area, and most of them
just sit there for 99.9% of the time accruing marina bills, insurance
bills, maintenance bills, interest charges, depreciation, etc, etc.

You can argue till you're blue in the face about the light construction
of the Mac, and how much better your boat is than the Mac, but the
facts are that there are some rather substantial practical advantages
in the design, including some significant safety advantages over heavy
boats. Enough to make them the fastest selling sailboat in the world,
the last I checked. Incidentally, it happens that I have been flamed
by some of the best in the business, and I always come back, so don't
start something that you don't want to continue, for whatever time it
takes.

I was here from the beginning. You're just a MacBoy either way.
