Default I was a Mac26X owner

We bought the boat, we sailed it some, and before the stock market crashed in
2000 we sold it--thank God, or we never would have gotten out from under it.

I don't really have any complaints except that we over did it with the engine.
We got the 50 hp on it, and that's just stupid. But it still sailed very well.
The steering, however, is not trustworthy, or at least I didn't trust it.
Nevertheless, it did get us through squalls. I saw a new Mac at a boat show
recently, and I couldn't believe how they ruined it. The layout sucks and the
materials just keep getting cheaper and cheaper. Everything seemed cheaper on
it, more flimsy. And they still put it on a single axle trailer!
