Re: M26 built with epoxy or polyester?

Re: Curtains in time for Christmas heat

Re: Sailing accident

Hi Dianderson Thanks for posting this unfortunate incident. It shows that even with some of the best equipment available and copiously skilled crew the sea can still be a cruel mistress… “The sea is so large and my boat is so small”.

Re: BOTTOM PAINT OPINION

Hi NavySailor!

How have things worked out for you?
You’ve have had a good decade since you mentioned your bottom paint issues…
So what did you decide to do?
How has it held up for you?

Re: MacGregor Sailing Accident - Safety Reminder

Hi All!

Has anyone come across any official accident investigation report?

I’ve been looking but haven’t found anything as yet….. Wondering if there are any members closer to the incident area who may have seen something in a local paper?

Best Regards
