Back From Mexico

Post by Hamin' X »

Just back from 3 weeks in the Mazatlan sun. Spotted a Mac X in one of the marinas. I saw it out sailing at least a dozen times. The other boats just sat. What a shame. Mac owners have more fun, I guess.

I think they are heeling in the sailing pictures.

It looks like they are sitting about right in the slip pictures.

Looks like they're behind a wave to me.

Swells were running 4-5 that day and they were quite a ways offshore.

I never was able to catch the owner near the boat. Also, a check of the marina trailer lot did not reveal a Mac trailer, or one that I deemed suitable for a Mac. Interesting... The boat showed a lot of fouling, so it had been in the water for some time.

Nice Pics.... 8)
Looks as though the boat needs a waterline clean up (probably a bottom job)...but no growth noticed however.
