Dry boat weight is only 1700 lbs. 26 feet in length. Leave the 1200 lbs of ballast at the lake! Haul it anywhere you want to sail. Great weekender boat with swing keel. Easy to launch and take out. Mast raising system. 1992 Nissan 10 HP Motor Runs great! 2 marine batteries. Pop top for height in galley. Marine Kettle gas grill. Bimini and new swing down stainless steel swim ladder, 4 fenders. Docklines. 1992 Custom Tandem trailer. In good condition. Ready to go.
3 year old mainsail with full mainsail cover. All covers do have some wear. Extra Sails : 1 spinnaker with pole and 2 jib sails. 1 Jib bag for storage on bow. The spinnaker and extra jib were not used during my ownership of the boat. Stored in bags & out of the weather. Cockpit cushions (both seats and backrests) and cabin cushions. In good shape. One spot on the 1 bed bow cushion that was there when purchased. Porta-potti in enclosed head Galley and sink for fresh water. Low cost alcohol stove that includes alcohol burners. Good size compartment under sink LED cabin lights. Storage compartments under every berth. Hanging nets for extra storage. Good size hatch for good ventilation. Bow and stern running lights work. Two anchors. 2 Inflatable Life jackets and extra basic orange life jackets Bow and stern pulpits with lifelines 4 extra Stanchions for bow lifelines - (larger ones for higher life lines) Were bought to replace older ones but had not got to that project. Boat was stored in dry storage during winter months. Boat has sailed every season in the last 8 years. As far as I know it has never been in salt water. Sails great. Could use new paint. Located in Oklahoma City, OK $5950

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
Dry boat weight: 1650 lbs.
Centerboard weight: 50 lbs.
An earlier model, called the MACGREGOR 26D was similar but with a (vertically) lifting keel. (also with water ballast = reduced weight for trailering. Not to be adjusted while sailing).
Spinnaker area: 360 sq. ft.
Thanks to a number of Macgregor owners for providing corrections and updated images.
