Macgregor 26D or 26S wanted
Looks like the time for this upgrade is rapidly approaching. I have been in business for myself for the last 5 plus years. I am closing the business, and getting a job. Yep a job. I am going to be one of those working stiff sardine's jammed on the Metro every morning. My reward - a new, but used, boat.
After extensive research, conversations with boat owners and more extensive research, I have decided on a Magregor 26D or 26S. For some reason, I am having a hell of a time finding either of these boats for sale within about 300 miles from DC. So, if you have a boat that you want to sell, please contact me!
I am looking for a boat that is structurally sound with sails and standing rigging in good shape. I will probably replace the running rigging anyway. A little TLC is not a problem, however I would like to avoid needing to make major repairs. Also I would hope that there is some life on the trailer tires, at least enough to pass inspection. No roller furling headsail? No problem! No outboard? No problem! I have a wish list of items that would be nice, but are not neccessary for this transaction to take place:
-Bimini
-Mast raising rig
-Bearing Buddies
-Ida sailor rudder upgrade
-Lines rigged aft
Please don't hesitate to email me if you are even THINKING about selling your 26D or 26S!!!

Get the "S" and not the "D". With a swing keel, if you hit something it will pop up.. with a dagger board, you can break it pretty easily. Just my opinion. I have an "X".
Oh dear god of jobs, please say it isn't so...don't work for the man...
We have a 26D for sale. We have no problems with the dagger board.
I have created a blog
