Default Atlantic Crossing on a 26' MacGregor ?


wrote in message
k.net...

Since the MacGregor doesn't capside and doesn't sink
(even when filled with water) would it be safer for
crossing the Atlantic than a 30' Bayliner ?

MacGregor 26 with it's poor sail performance, lack of proper ballast or top
heavy power performance is only good for gentle days on a pond! The
Binliner would be just as poor on a serious Atlantic crossing.
