HI All, Thanks for your time and replies. Well, I am not doing a market research but it's not easy to chose a sailboat for a beginner like me without any experience yet. We don't have islands where I am, we have only 100 Km of long coats, i went to the Marina and i saw some 40 feet sailboat as Bavar...

Your boat choices are unrealistic comparisons, boats are not rented in the Med, and charter companies don't have Mac's in their fleets, and if your buying they can not be the same price range unless they are all scrapped, you would have sounded more reasonable if you had shorten the distances, comp...

Ray is right This isn't for real, you just don't cruise "... maximum 5 miles away from the cost but all along the cost from Spain , France, Italy, Greece, turkey to Beirut" for a summer. And if they are serious the people renting them the boat aren't. There far too many discrepancies here...

We will be 3 persons with no experience with One Captain of 3 years experience. Its hard not to say this judgementally, and to be fair I havent cruised in the Med, but based on what I have read I think this an inadequately experienced crew for a cruise of this length. If the three years of experien...

I haven't been pricing boats in the Med and I'll assume it is more expensive to purchase there (less inventory?). But, from what I've seen those are not great prices for boats of that size and age in salt water. If you need it to already be in the Med then again it could be a good price. What do yo...

Several years back I investigated the Beneteau 40 and 44 thoroughly for a purchase plan. I decided I really like the big open center cockpit for just ambling around cruising with a family and friends. I don't know much about Bavaria so offer no opinion. In the deeper waters of the Med, I'd pick the...

Hard to say without details: -in what waters -how many crew -experience level of crew -time between ports -what condition are these boats in -how are the boats rigged..for soloing, large crew -if you are anchoring are they equiped for it -captains experience level -will you have support for any bre...

Hi all, I have the chance to select one of these 3 boats to sail with it all this summer. Which one i should select? Mac 26M is a powerboat with Sail. it's like a Porsche Boxster, small, fast and it can sail and very affordable price to buy. Beneteau Oceanis 40cc model 1997 is a real sail boat with ...

After you have spent few years with the Macgregor 26 X or M, Which next boat (used or new) will you buy if you got a bonus of 20k or 30k. ?? and why?

What is the ideal V degree of the hull botton shape if we have a sea like San Francisco bay. Very choppy and sharp and fast waves ??

Is 15 degree of the 26M enough for that sea?

....and the Winner is the MAC 26.... Thanks for all your replies... I've spent the last month doing research by calling all manufacturers and some owners to select the right power sailboat, I talked to Odin - Imexus from Poland http://imexusyachts.com/english, The Hunder edge company, the Mach28 fr...

Captain Phoenix, It seems to me that you are in the same position as a European Football fan who goes to Manchester, England and asks: "Is there a better team than Manchester United??" "How about Barcelona??" You are among a group of MacGregor owners who love their boats and spe...

HI,

does anyone have the latest inside photos for the 2009 Model ?

I am not sure that we are in disagreement at all. The Mac owners will provide you with comments galore, praising the advantages of the boat. They will be as sincere as you will ever hope to get from someone who has already made the choice and picked out a Mac. But you are asking the wrong question,...
