But comparing apples to oranges Mac 26 is a better boat for the buck, easier to handle and trailer etc. that's why I'm a proud owner of my 2006 Mac 26M which I bought right after selling 2003 model.
I am very curious as to why one would sell a 2003 model to buy a 2006 model of the same boat??? :?
I would not trade my 2003 model for any other year or model of Macgregor, I think the 2003 model was their finest! :P
Let me disagree. I like new layout better and my 2003 was a blue hull which is way slower than white.

Hi Darek,

All these PowerSailors are great... Mac X, M and all the Copies French Dufour Duo from Years Past, German Vita, Polish/German Mast/Odin/Imexus/Odin Nova. and all the others that allow us "Boating Crazy's" :wink: to continue the quest...

Just this nice shot, from a Powersailer in Scotland.....Real Creative with the Synthetic Teak.
I like It :?:

I do like the synthetic teak,it looks good on a boat.

Theres an Odin Just downriver from where i keep my :macx: ,it sits along side a :macm: ,the Odin has the inboard,which IMHO is an advantage in Uk waters,you just try to get Gas along the Uk coastline,the marinas sell it at $10.00 a gallon and thats when you can get it.Ive had to beach my mac just to walk to a Gas station,diesel on the other hand is easy to get,just about every small harbour and marina has it and its a lot cheaper than gas.

If you were dishonest you could run your diesel engine on fuel that costs $4.00 a gallon,but honest folks pay the tax and end up paying $8.50 a gallon.
