Do you know that the Michigan prop requires a hub insert to fit the Honda? I have one and will try to find the paper work. Mine is a 11 1/4X10. I don't get 18mph, more like 14-15, but I'm heavy. Ken My michigan prop came with the hub insert permanently mounted inside the prop. you can't remove it.

Maybe I was overestimating how fast I was going at first because it seems as though 15 knots is as fast as anyone goes on the 26x with the honda 50 OB. Surely someone is going 24mph like Macgregor said it would. What? The boat has to be empty and derigged to do that? Damn, I'll never derig all that ...

I know that there were design changes in the ballast tank from your boat to mine and that could affect the cen...

Hey Everyone! I'm a new Macgregor 26 :macx: owner. I sold my fixed keel ericson 29 sloop and found a spotless, loaded with every option 2002 26X with the Honda 50 OB. I just sailed it 45 Miles from Destin FL to Pensacola FL and back and I'm impressed. Question, I don't think the ballast is draining ...
