26 Foot Long with Folding Keel and Single Axle Trailer with Spare Tire, 15HP Honda BF15A Outboard with Electric Start and Pull Start, Large Oversized Rear Berth and Spacious Front Berth, Clean good working Condition Port-A-Potty, Kitchen Sink and Denatured Alcohol Stove, Folding Table, Plenty of Seating both inside and outside of the Boat, Front Hatch for great ventilation, Brand New Deep Cycle Battery, New Dimmable LED Strip Lights, New Battery powered Touch Lights, New 6 Gallon Gas Tank, Rear Boat Seat Cushions with Backs, 4 Windows inside the Cabin, Scratch Resistant White Flooring Throughout, Spacious Rear Locking Cargo Hold, Freshly Painted Rudder and Wood Tiller, Great Condition Like New Main Sail, I have the Jib Sail but it needs replacing and is worn.
This Sailboat is designed to be towed and is only 1600 lbs dry weight. It has a ballast tank that fills up with 1400 lbs of weight to stabilize the boat while under way. It also has a folding Keel that adds crucial stability
Clean Colorado Title in Hand for the trailer!!! Just Licensed and has 1 year Colorado Parks Registration Paid through April 2023. Very Good Condition inside and out for the age!!! Honda Motor Runs perfectly and starts up on the first pull!!! The Honda outboard was recently serviced with a new fuel tank, new fuel lines, New Spark Plugs, New Oil Change, and New Gear Oil. The Sailboat has a fresh coat of paint on the fiberglass rudder and the Tiller.
I have the sails, booms, Owners Manual online, and all hardware but don’t know anything about sailing so I won’t be any help if you call with technical questions.
This is the perfect boat for cruising the local lakes and taking the family out fishing or having a nice weekend dinner cruise. The berths are spacious and comfortable for kids of all ages!!!
SOLD
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.
