Sea Blue Trim Mac 26x - 1995

Post by dennisdl »

I am still looking to buy a used Mac 26x - came across one that has Blue paint trim instead of the standard black !! Anyone else see one like this ??? Oh yeah. the serial no. is MACX0083E595 - which tells me it is hull #83 of the 1995 breed !? It looks really sharp - distinctively different !!

Sounds like someone painted over the original black gel coat.

Hello:
I don't know if this is what you are talking about but Blue Water Yachts sold boats the first year with an accent stripe (boat show special). It was a decal they applied at the dealer. You can see an example here. Mind you, it is in addition to not in replacement of the black stripe.

blue stripe

The blue stripe makes it look like it goes faster but slows it down so it doesn't plane
