Re: Macgregor 26X refit
For those of you who may have subscribed to that channel, you will no doubt think it is "AWESOME"
That word is used in Australia, but seems to be so much more used in Canada......every second sentence they speak contains the word "awesome"
Not that it is a problem, I don't need to offend...it is good to see 2 people get so excited about sailing a 26x !!

Re: Macgregor 26X refit
This is in fact an AWESOME video series about updating, refitting, modifying and using a Macgregor 26X sailboat. If you don't already have a Macgregor, it's incredibly informative and useful. If you do have a Macgregor, you may also find it informative and inspiring. These folks have much enthusiasm, determination, knowledge and skill. They also show a great deal of persistence in following through and actually getting stuff done. They have more than five hours of videos in which topics are presented in a light-hearted and youthfully enthusiastic way that will probably work very well with a YouTube audience. It's also AWESOME to see a woman working enthusiastically on a small sailboat. While women sailors are widely represented on other social media, they are sorely lacking from this site. And by the way, they use the word "AWESOME" about 12 times in the 17:35 minute video, probably below average for a typical West Coast North American trying to explain a successfully achieved process. I have no connection to these folks, have different perspectives than what they're trying to achieve in some of their modifications and am not endorsing them as experts on boat maintenance or sailing. Nonetheless, they have hours and hours of high quality content about Macgregor sailboats on YouTube.
