I think JimC works for the MacGregor Boats company. Why else on earth would
somebody spend so much time talking about such a flimsy and ugly boat. I was gonna say *sailboat* but the Mac26 is more like a motor sailor than a sailboat. He says he's a lawyer. He probably defends MacGregor against the hundreds of lawsuits they get filed against them every year. Things like endangerment, false advertising, unsuitability for intended use, polluting the visual environment, etc etc etc..... Water ballast is stupid. All it does is put water in the bottom of the hull. It doesn't add any weight at all it just lowers the boat down into the water. Then it sloshes back and forth and slows the boat down. Dumb! Take a look at the mast. I've got spaghetti straps on my tops that are thicker than Mac26 masts. Take a look at how high-sided and flat the hull is. I bet it sounds like a drum inside. I'd be ashamed to be seen in a Mac26. I think JimC is ashamed too that he bought such a lame-o boat. I bet he won't make the same mistake twice. But, since he works for MacGregor he maybe might.
