The New MacGregorSailors.com Website
What started as a website to talk about our MacGregor 26X had grown into a place for
owners and enthusiasts of all MacGregor trailerable sailboats to meet, to have
discussions and to share ideas. We had outgrown the old name and it was time for a
change. I picked MacGregorSailors.com to indicate that everybody is welcome to visit
this website and to become part of the community.
Along with moving to the new website, it was well past time for some other changes. The
old website had grown and expanded to the point where it was becoming very difficult and
time-consuming to maintain with the result that some pages were outdated. The new system I
have implemented will let me focus more time on adding content and features instead of
fixing and maintaining old pages. I hope you enjoy the results!
If you're new to the website, a good place to start is the
Discussion Board. Frequent visitors to the
old website will notice that the discussion board uses an entirely different system
which may take a little time to learn and to become familiarized with. With the new
board, I have also decided to split it up into different "Forums" focusing on certain
general topics. This was the most difficult decision about the new board as there had been
a lot of debate on the topic when I asked the old discussion board visitors for their
opinions on the matter. In the end, I decided that the old system of just one forum was
just a little too cluttered which made it difficult sometimes to find the topics of interest.
Now that you've made it this far, time to stop listening to me babble and start checking out
what the new MacGregor Sailors website has to offer! A good way to start is by catching up
on current discussion topics at the Discussion Board.
Next, head over to the Exploring Pages
to read about people's adventures on their Mac's. If you're looking for ways
to improve your Mac - whether it's adding some new electronics, a lazyjack system,
better storage options, or ways to spruce up the interior - be sure to check out the new
Modifications Pages. They're full of great ideas!
Finally, check out the Online Catalog for items to
help improve your sailing experience - including the popular
SpeedyRigger Video Series, the
Boomkicker, and the ingenious
Aussie Bob's MacGregor Mods.
Thanks for visiting the new MacGregorSailors.com website!
