dboh and group,

I generally stay away from the Mac 26 "discussions. Pretty useless
conversations.

My feelings tho:

The Mac26 is a boat that cant make up its mind and the owners are
probably pretty much the same

BTW: I just looked up Practical Sailor Guide to Boat Buying review of
the Westsail 32 and no where is it called a "wet snail". My WS was an
extremely dry boat, sure it wasn't fast and needed a good bit of room
to turn in but was everything a true sailor could ask for. If I'd
wanted fast, I would have bought a mac26

PS did not call the WestSail a "Wet Snail" in their review, it was in
an article in the early 90s on cruising boats when they were looking
for a boat to upgrade for their world cruise. I'll find it eventually.

I lived on the round the world cruising route way back in the early 80`s and
first heard the term "Wet snail" then.No idea where it came from though.
