Hey, don't forget the X owners - there's more of them than there are M owners!

Yes, his stuff seems good and his prices certainly are!

But it was SOFTOPPER I was thinking of - I have purchased several things from him and all of them are really good quality at an acceptable price. Here's a link to what he's selling today for Mac's:

once we get involved with the Macgregor sailors and we can gather data on the older boats we will offer similar products. We are getting our hands on a 2009M next Saturday. It will go to the Shop Monday for photos and measurements and let some of the designers get a good look at her we will start a priority list of
upgrades. currently we are looking at the window coverings cockpit seat cushions. and the possibility of an rc versions with electric motor and reefing main. I think rc boat may have an advantage as we can add more weight ( battries for motor) We are not interested in producing items already available.

To solve the problem of hanging curtains I cut & stained some 1x2 wood blocks then used Goop to stick them to the liner.I then screwed ordinary curtain hardware to the blocks, then used regular curtain rods to hang the curtains.

Frankly,

I like the idea of adding a wench, (or two???), best.
