New 26M owner / Advice on purchases from BWY?

Forums: 

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.

Burgees

Forums: 

Hi all,

I’m looking into having some burgees made for our local boating association, similar in style to the MacGregor burgees.

Could anyone from the committee or members recommend suitable suppliers or share any previous experience?

Many thanks,

Thor

Replacing my M rigging

Forums: 

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.

M26 Fuel Tanks

Forums: 

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.
