Mac 26M Boat Review

Post by Joshua Colvin »

Hi All,

We are preparing to review the Mac 26M for an article in an upcoming issue. In addition to sailing the boat ourselves, we always rely heavily on owner feedback to complete the review. If you own or have owned a MacGregor 26M and would be interested in participating, please send an email to:

[email protected]

We will forward our owner survey.

Thanks for your time.
Sincerely,

Joshua Colvin

I responded to your email, as an owner of a 26M, I would participate in the survey.

Time-scale for article ?

Josh,
What time-scale do you have for your article ?

There may be others like myself whose brand new Mac26M has just arrived (with all the trimmings).

...and would likely need a month or two of actual usage to be in a position to give meaningful feedback.

Realistically, folk considering a brand new MacM will no doubt want feedback from users of the 2005 model even more-so than the 2004 model.

Presumably, folk reading the article will be prospective 2006-season buyers who will be making their mind up in the fall of 2005 ?

So, if your timescale permits, I'll gladly forward on my experiences with the 2005 MacM with a Honda 50HP.

I'd think as a minimum those who contributed to the article should get a complimentary copy.
