is this standard on all MacGregors ?? i have a rope with a Knot is this YEEE OOOOLLD boat makers MARK! its a 1990 26D looks cool makes me feel special inside. almost like i have witnesd the lock ness monster. but im thinking i should calm down after all i dident win the lotery but it is nice to discover an OLD tradition if thats what it is any ways. soo any history buffs would like to explain this one would deffinatly be appriciated. ohh and i compleatly understand that this is something i should have learned in elemetary and im ebarased to ask lol soo keep in mind im a new to this art of capturing wind for pleasure. aka Sailing

Everyone has one.

Seriously, can you describe where it is ?

it is up front bellow the V berth. if u were to walk up to the v birth and it would be the wall ur knees hit on the other side a 3 or 2 foot rope in a cirquil with a KNOT fiberglassed in. if we all have one were are they located on the

I have one in my 95 26S also under the v-berth.

Feature from Macgregor...."don't sail like this guy..."

k9kampers wow a catigale in ur Bilge with that kind of luck u should check the big valve to the deep obysse for any MONALISSAS or maybe a Michalangelo at any rate one should atleast find a hook and floater in yeee ollld head after a big meal unless they have a knot or two in there bilge

vizwhiz so u think its a bad REPAIR? sorry vizwhiz im to tierd got nothing maybe if i sleep on it but it would be to cramped and akward to sleep on the rope with knot . ill just stick with Catigales story so i can sleep in comfort

I believe its what the use in the factory to pull the hull out of the mould.

Madguy beat me to it..I just remembered seeing the same on my

You use blue rope so you don't pull the hull out before the FG sets...its slower of course..

Must be the umbiblical cord for a "berthed" boat!

I'll look for mine but it always feels like that bas relief iz watchin' me!
