Ahoy there all,

I’m soon to be a proud new MacGregor 26M owner based in the South of England. Looking forward to crossing paths with some of you out on the water soon!

I’m currently sourcing for a new mainsail and sprayhood. I have quotes from ADM/Sanders Sails and CJ Marine/Advanced Covers, but Blue Water Yachts (USA) is significantly cheaper—even including their expensive shipping.

Hi all,

I have a bent spreader on my 26M that needs replacing. Does anyone have a spare/suitable replacement or is aware where I could source one? BWY have one here: https://shop.bwyachts.com/product-p/3202-1v0.htm. The part nr on the website is #3202-1V0.

Hello all,

Before I put the mast back up after my excursion to the Broads for the Big Mac I thought I'd investigate what needs fixing next time it's down.

There's a bit of fraying on where the shroud meets the stay adjuster (that I want to upgrade to turnbuckles).

BWY have the official set here https://shop.bwyachts.com/product-p/3118-1m0.htm but I wondered if anyone could help me out with the specs that I could give to a UK rigger to get these made in the UK.

Can anybody recommend where to get a fitted boat cover for over-wintering a 26M on a trailer that will be sturdy enough to cope with strong sun and high winds for a number of years?

I have just bought 3 new tanks for Mist. I guess very similar to the ones Roly found a couple of years ago. Two 24Ltr tanks fit side by side under the seats. There is only a very slight protrusion where the seat curves around the binnacle.

I have bought three as on one side I have space left for two 10Ltr portable tanks on their edge. This will give me a capacity of 92 Ltr.
