With 40,000 of them out there, hundreds of the the boats would be lost
or torn apart every year, and Mac owners and guests would be drowned or
stranded every year. Yet that doesn't happen except in very rare instances.

Yup. You got it. They fall apart in the SF bay. Even the dealer
recommends people not sail them here without extensive work.

Where's your evidence that the Mac rigging is failing or coming apart,
Johnny? What statistics do you have on the number of Macson on which
the rigging failed?

See previous. And, I saw a Mac last year that could not sail in
Raccoon Straight. We circled them and ask if they needed help, they
said, no, and dropped the sail and started the engine. Made straight
for Tiberon. Gee, and it was only blowing about 22 kts.

No problem backing up your statements Johnny? Then why don't you get
busy and start? So far all you have done is post more of your ridiculous
biased assertions, with nothing backing them up. Think about how that
makes you look to others monitoring this discussion, John!.

Already did.

No problem backing up your statements? - Then have at it.

Done did it.
