We arrived Sunday and saw two Mac,s within an hour. Was unable to talk to either boat. Haven,t seen another Mac in a couple of weeks. We are headed up the Trent-Severn waterway Tuesday morning.

Well, you'll probably be long gone by mid-August, but there will be a bunch of Macs on Simcoe then, and you're passing right through it on your way to Huron. 8)

Ris, are you coming through Lake Couchiching to the Severn river canal side? Dinner and a shower's on me - drinks on you if you are. :D
We're very close to Lock one in Washago on the Green river.

Sorry. SeaSaw emigrated from Collins Bay several years ago. She was custom-modified for the Trent-Waterway.

We left Trenton on Tuesday and are now in campbellford. After posting the other day a Mac 26 X pulled into a slip next to us in port Trenton marina. He has a dinghy Davit that lifts his dinghy out of the water. Boat name is Flirt. In Canada it costs money to change your boat name so he left it as flirt. They have it set up as a trawler. Then had some folks on a Gibson houseboat call out to us that they have a Mac and usually attend the Canada get togethers. I think they said they were from Montreal. Will post the pic of Flirt later. Thanks to all the offers of help. If we are passing near you let us know and we can meet up.

I believe Starspun and her SO have a houseboat, and a 26X with cool new sails (with custom graphics 8) ) and have attended the Ontario MacGregor Sailors Rendezvous in the past, but they're in Toronto area.

Tom you are most likely correct. Here is a pic of the dinghy lift on the boat Flirt
