BTW, from the Macgregor site, we also have: "IF THE CABIN OF THE BOAT IS ENTIRELY FILLED WITH WATER, AND THE BOAT IS DEPENDENT ON THE FOAM FLOTATION TO KEEP IT AFLOAT, IT WILL BE VERY UNSTABLE, AND MAY TURN UPSIDE DOWN." Where in the world did you get that verbage, Keith? Apparently you are deliberately misquoting the Mac site.- The actual statements regarding the floatation system a "The boat has built-in solid foam flotation to keep it afloat in the event of damage. It won’t sail well when fully flooded, and it will be unstable, but it beats swimming. Most competing boats do not offer this essential safety protection, and their heavy keels can pull them straight to the bottom. Don't get a boat without solid flotation!" -Nothing about the boat becoming "very unstable" or that it "may turn upside down." - Keith, don't try that BS with me again. BWAHAHAHAHAAA! What a Jackass you are Jim. The comment appears twice on the very same page, once for the 26M and again for the 26X. Its exactly what I, and others, have been claiming. It's quite evident from this statement that when flooded, in heavy seas, the Mac can be expected to turn turtle, or roll. Nope. That's your statement, not MacGregor's. Nope, its MacGregor's! Thanks for snipping his bs. He's a motor mouth besides. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
