Yep, he did in fact send me a pic. He'll deny it and that's fine. I
don't have a problem with his choice in boats so long as it suits him.

That's it RB!

I told you not to tell anyone about my boat! You broke any trust I had in
you.

You will burn in hell!

Amen!

What are you on about? Your boat is simple, fun and easy to maintain.
It's also still pretty new and not a train wreck like Bart's or
Sloco's.
Be proud of her.

I have been a "lurker" on this new group for a year or so. Needless to
say I find the various postings entertaining and in some cases quite
informative.

I can understand Mr. Crants reluctance to have his vessel ownership
be known... particulary with this bunch. (smile)

Mac owners... are sometimes like a ******* calf looking for it's
mother...the stinkpot crowd much less the sailors show them no
respect.

IMHO the MacGregor 26 offers the best of both worlds... for someone
with limited resources and/or nautical abilities or whatever.

Yes Mr. Crants... what an interesting revelation thanks to Rob's
reporting. heh heh

Best regards

Read the responses, they are hilarious!

Crantz ain't Gilligan.

Crantz ain't Gilligan.


The really sad, lonely and pathetic part is that he's not Crantz
either.

Crantz is a looney and it's obvious he has no boat or ever sailed. What
the hell is he doing here? He's obviously some religious wacko, but
he's not converting anyone. Friggin nut job loser!

May I comment on how much it resembles a Benneteau 35s5... in layout, design
and performance! :-)

You might want to consider the bigger sisterships of that model... the
Benneteau 35s5 or the Macgregor 65! Both vessels exhibit the performance
and versatility made renown by the 26M line.

I disagree Bill. It's a self-limitiing boat. One needs to continually strive
for better.

I disagree Bill. It's a self-limiting boat.

Captain Ganz I am very familiar with your position relative to
the capabilities or the lack there of... pertaining to the Mac-
Gregor 26 X/M. I have followed your postings on other threads
having to do with the "Mac". I might add that I found your com-
mentary very usefull and respect your opinions along those lines.

Previous to my current interest in the MacGregor 26... I was
considering a 30-40 foot sloop or trawler but gave up the chase
after carefull consideration of my own limitations. More specific-
ally I wanted to be able to operate single handed... and found
that at my age (67) I would find such a sailing vessel rather intim-
idating for me physically.

So I looked into a trawler (I believe it was a 34' Mainliner) and
after trashing around for several hours outside the Ventura Harbor
(California) I came into bunker... which cost around $ 75.00...
for the fuel I had expended. I decided that ain't going to work
either... :-)

Like Dirty Harry use to say... "a man must know his limitations".

So as a result I kind of became enamored with the MacGregor con-
cept. Needlessto say... it appears that thousands of others have
as well.

And yeh... it's kind of a "wannabee" situation with the Mac... but
what the heck... for a lot of us it's better than nothing!

Best regards

Bill

You can't argue with that. Some folks do just fine with the Mac26 and
the M appears to be a superior sailboat to the older design. I wish you
luck with her.

Hey Bill, it sounds like it's fine for your purposes. I have nothing against
Macs if you know what you're getting into.

Your original quote was "IMHO the MacGregor 26 offers the best of both
worlds... for someone
with limited resources and/or nautical abilities or whatever."

I'd say you fit in the whatever category more than the others. For people
with strictly "limited resources and/or nautical abilities" there are better
boats.

Hey Nutsy?

I really don't give two ****s about the boat; I'd like to actually see
if Crantz has a human body?

That's their new campaign slogan...''Mac, it's better than
nothing.''
