I prefer to sail a MacGregor,


You're not sane



get out on the water more frequently,


you'll love stepping and unstepping the mast, re-rigging & de-rigging,
launching, etc., etc., each time.

The plan is to leave the boat in a gated boat storage area that has
access to the water. The mast would be left up.



insurance, financing, bottom treatments, engine repairs, rigging

repairs, electronics, sail replacements, etc.



No insurance on your Mac?

About $400 per year. (What I meant was that I wouldn't be paying
insurance on the larger, charter boats.


No bottom paint?

Nope. Not needed if the boat is sitting on the trailor when not in the
water.

That 50 hp WILL need maitnance.

Right. About $200 per year?

No rigging, electronics, or sails on your macM?????

Yes, I'll have to keep up the sails, rigging, electronics, etc. But when
you have only 300 sq ft of sails, and light, simple rigging, it's more
manageable.




Ever hear about "BOTH AND" instead of "EITHER OR," Scotty?



No, ever heard about ''IF ONLY'' , jimmy?

Yes, I think I have. You are saying: "IF ONLY I had bought a Mac 26M....."?
