Since november I bought a 2005 26M, till now resting under a pine, I faced a lot of troubles in finding a place for her but now a decent place has come out and tomorrow she will float in there(at least I hope she will :? ). I've been waiting spending all this time, fantasizing thanks to this site that lessened the pain of having a boat without the possibility to use it, I've been reading all the instructions of the boat dozen times I even learned so many sailorman words in english I could never imagine I'd ever known and at last now is time for some action, Yay!!!!
If anyone want to see where the place is, these are the coordinates taken from Google Earth 40.938290 N 8.225508 E, Sardinia Italy, right in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea. The name of the village is Stintino. There's never been a Macgregor 26 M before. In a way I feel myself a pioneer

For the price of a plane ticket (even coach) I will come over and show you how to sail it. It may take a couple of months but I'm just that generous.

Welcome aboard

And I signoir. will carry your bags. In Europe, it ees unthinkable for such an important person as yourself to carry your own bags. :)

In your honor, my favorite Italian bugle call "Il Silencio" - you should play it every time your dock at the end of the day. 8)

Yea, I'd be glad to come over there as well. Looks wonderful.
