Yeah, bottom line - the M boat is better.

The June 12th forecasted levels for Lakes Michigan-Huron and St. Clair are 6 and 2 inches respectively higher than last year’s levels.

"Possible" - yes. "Practicale" - I dunno

I have very nice success with boarding from the sides.

Ditto 8) I have the original 26X brackets and rudders on my 1998X. I have run aground about four times over the 16 plus years I have had her. I did recover the boat once with the rudders still in the down position. The groundings did not cause any damage. The very short distance I drove up the ramp ...

My wife said that she liked the 26X better than the 26M, so we have the 26X. Therefore the 26X must be better.

Sounds like a sweet deal. Bought my 97X the same way - sigh unseeen, No regrets.

Jelouse of your Bigfoot. My 50HP Merc is nice, but no a Bigfoot.

How robust?...

Not nearly enough to survive several attempts at hauling out in the locked down position! Jus sayin'!

:D :D Something I don't understand about this character... He's suddenly free of marital entanglements and has a boat and classic pickup in San Diego, and he wants to kill himself? Why? That'd be like living the life of Riley! Also, isn't an AMT .380 backup a 5+1? How does he get eight shots? Oh wai...

You really need to be more specific. I have a 97X. My old style rudders (and I have an extra set from ebay - just in case) - seem to be holding up fine after 10 years and after having had to repair/weld the rudder brackets (of which I also have an extra set re: ebay). 8) How robust are the MacGregor...

Ditto 8) I've heard it said, and rightly so, that the X and the M are two completely different boats, despite their superficial similarities. Best answer to these questions would come from someone who's owned and operated both designs. The answer will depend, to a degree, on how you want to use the ...

I distinctly remember the monopoly man having a monocle. :) On his webpage, Mighetto / s/v Murrelet had a picture and paragraph of a transom extension that Macgregor was supposedly testing but never offered. I also came across a pic of a Mac with a full transom width stainless steel / teak swim plat...

I do this, I have 6 tanks total (two are spare), but for the last 10 years I've only had two mounted in my X, the left side is used for misc. item storage. 8) I like having storage in the cockpit so I would probably keep a 12 gallon tank on one side, and a smaller tank on the other so that you can s...
