We first learned about the new 1996 MacGregor 26X at the Minneapolis Boat
Show in the spring of 1995. We purchased the video tape and got a lot of
brochures. It was love at first sight. I knew Elaine would love it also
since it had a lot of head room,a stove, an a place for 6 people to sleep
and a bathroom. Now I had a goal. I pasted the pictures on my office wall
and played the video often. My deadline was May 1997. In the fall of 1996
we had a chance to rent for a couple of hours the 26X MacGregor form a
dealer in Glenwood, MN. That is the picture you see here. It was a very
windy day with winds 25 to 26 mph. At the end of two and a half hours of
sailing we were able to make a intelligent decision that it was a stable
and comfortable sailboat. The goal was set for May 1977.
