Hello All
I lost my computer drive a while ago and need to find the pdf with the M26 blueprints. I had it saved but not to a flash drive or satellite memory. Lesson learned? What I need right now is length of line for the rudders. My old line frayed last time out. I believe it is 5/16" dia. but do not want to pull it out without having an attached traveler line to help get new line back to its proper place. I have searched the forum but probably did not get the right terms for the search to work for the pdf.
Thanks Mike

I don't know the exact length, but if you get 15 feet for each side you should be OK. The original line thickness is 5/16". I changed this on my boat to 2X purchase for the pull-up and auto-releasing cleats for the rudders. These cleats require changing to 1/4" line.

that sounds interesting- anybody else have the blue prints- I would sure like to have a look at them, and have them handy for projects

Blueprints are, as far as I know, not available. But there is still a page on the old MacGregor website showing detail information of all hardware used.

You can also look it up at BWY. I've checked a few of mine against their replacement part listing, and found it to be accurate as far as being the same as what's on my boat (which is consistent with what's needed).
