Think I did. Don't know if was a sloop. But it was nice looking.
As I recall, Don's boat has its fans, as do most.
But like I said, to each his own.
Some care about looks, and some care about other things.
The Mac 26 has its advantages.
I won't bother to list them. BTDT.

The reality is that here in N. FL, sailing goes from late October to
early June and then the wind dies and it is simply too hot to sit and
bake. I use the powerboat in those summer months. It does involve a
change of mental perspective that takes a few weeks to sink in.
