2015 Tattoo MacGregor 26 Powersailor

A pocket cruiser perfect for our shallow waters! Joining the best of both the sailing and motorboat worlds, the Tattoo 26 is the latests and greatest from the builder formerly known as MacGregor as the 26. This 26’ sailboat with a full set of sails and rigging can zip along in any breeze but also features an outboard engine large enough to push the boat at planing speeds when the wind dies, or to cover longer distances, or even to pull a tube or waterskier!

Quick, stable and responsive, the revolutionary Tattoo 26 is a swift and smooth handling sailboat that is capable of being trailered. A trailer is not included.

If you are buying a sailboat for the first time, performance may seem of little interest to you. However, a boat that performs well is generally safer and easier to sail. It will certainly yield greater long-term enjoyment.

I love this boat and just cant find the time to take her on the adventures I had planed on. I cant make the time to give her the attention she deserves. Life is getting in the way of all my sailing adventures. Id love to see her go on to a new home where she can be enjoyed as I had planed to do. Secure her at your slip or on a trailer of your own selection.

A beautifully sailing boat, The Tattoo 26 also offers high speed powering without compromising sailing performance. Its high speed under power opens up a variety of activities and destinations that are not available to conventional sailboats. With the 60 hp outboard the 26 can attain speeds of up to 20 mph enough to pull a water-skier!

Safety: The Tattoo 26 has several safety features that make it a first choice for both seasoned and beginning sailors. First, Solid Foam Flotation - The boat has built-in solid foam flotation to keep it afloat in the event of damage. The boat can literally fill with water and still support a crew of 6 as shown. Next, Stability - even with the ballast tank empty, the boat can take 180 lbs. on the rail and remain flat in the water. Finally, Self-Righting - when the ballast tank is filled, the 26 is completely self-righting. This means that the boat will return to an upright position after being pulled over on its side with the sails set. It takes about 300 lbs. at the top of the jib to lean the boat beyond 30 degrees, and 120 lbs at the same place to hold it on its side with the mast parallel to the water. Additional safety features include a self-bailing cockpit, non-skid deck surfaces, bow and stern pulpit and lifelines (forward and rear safety rails), kickup twin rudders and daggerboard, mainsail reefing system, stern ladder, and even lifejackets included
