Speaking of which!!!!!

The economic situation seems to have hit the MacGreggor owners hardest.

As of today there are NINE 26X boats for sale on Sailing Texas.

That's an all time record - so far...

Assuming they're selling, the 26X/M boats hold value pretty well,
when original boat price is considered.
By that I mean boat only price.
I figure the outboards are hard used and not worth much anyway.
Sort of complicated figuring boat "upgrades" which might not hold any
value to a new owner.
Those high prices might be an argument to just buy new.
