That piece of water looks great...and warm. I can't wait to disconnect from land and see the light.

Thanks for the info. When it was new the fan would run all night.

Does anyone know where I can pick up a battery for this solar vent?

That's a good point DaveB. I didn't consider the ballast handle being in the way if I moved it to the other side. I can see everyone tripping over that. I wouldnt mind keeping the ladder I have but it's one step too short.

I would think macgregor would have installed it on the starboard side to begin with.

The seat swings to the starboard side and the current OEM ladder is on the same side.

I'm installing a transom ladder from BWY on 26x and not sure if just screws will be enough to hold the mounts securely. Will it hold 230lbs Should I bolt thru?? I also was thinking about installing on the port side because of the swing on seat for ease of entry and exit. Has anyone been there and do...

I have slipped for 4 years on the south river and about every few weeks I get a lot if growth around the water line. When hurricane Sandy came through it cost me $1200 to repair the damaged fiberglass around the rub rail that kissed the pilon a few times. I live and hour away so it can be a pain run...

If given the choice and the price was the same would you keep your boat in the water or trailor store there with the mast up ready to go? I feel like if I trailor store it the boat may stay cleaner and I wouldn't have to rush A hour away to secure the boat when a storm/hurricane came up the coast .C...

Thanks Bob for the information. I think I will try it out this coming summer.

Is the water deep enough at the ramp to have rudder and centerboard down

Thanks Pedro

Does the single ramp get crowded on weekends? How do you charge your batteries? Are other macs plugged in all the time? Do you keep the boat there all year round? I think have see you on the water around. My 26x is named "Drift Inn"

Is there anyone here that sails out of Casa Rio Marina.MD ? I always have slipped my boat and was thinking about storing it on the trailer with the mast up at the marina when not in use to keep the bottom cleaner and not having to worry about storms that come up the bay. I live an hour away . I'm no...

I just swap my out last weekend without stepping the mast. You will need remove the RF from the mast. Unscrew one bolt at the top. Then tie a rope around a good solid tree and the other to trailer hitch using a tie down ratchet. Tighten it up with a little tension. It only took 15 min. I thought tis...

I sail a 26X 2002 with 150 on a furler which I despertly need to replace. Who has the better genoa? Hyde or BWY? Second question is, I would like to be able to add a hank on jib for those windy days on the Chesapeake Bay. Does anyone have any know how and materials I need? I'm not sure if its worth ...
