Hi

I have been looking for a Mac 26 to trailer around. I have been looking up the rules and regulations about towing to get the right vehicle and trailer combo. The weight is not an issue but the length is causing me problems. The gov website states the maximum trailer length is only 7m or just under 23ft. How do I get round this.
Thanks for and advice.

Hi 26M owners, I have been experiencing water ingress on my 26M which appears to be coming in via the anchor locker on the bow. There is a drain hole at the rear of the locker which is presumably connected to a tube which takes the water out at the starboard side of the bow. I suspect that the tube has spplit or detached but cannot get to the underside of the bow locker. Has anyone replaced or refitted this drain tube ?

Hi Everyone

I've noticed two thin ropes inside the mast of my 26M. One yellow, and one red/pink.

I have no idea what they are for. Could anyone enlighten me?

Many Thanks!!!

As some of you might have noticed my Mac 19 Margarita is up for sale but my association with the Association will continue until she's gone, which might take some time.

My plan is to edit one more Newsletter/magazine so if anyone wishes to take the job on, please get in touch.

If you have any news, information, tales of derring do, Mac adventures, amazing pictures or proposals for future events - please, send them my way and I will incorporate them into the MacGregor Sailor. New member introductions of themselves and of their boats always add interest.

I am planning on sailing all the way round the uk on my MacGregor 26s ( Bella ). Leaving around 1st may hopefully completing the trip within 6 weeks. I am raising money for the RNLI.
