MacGregor boats are known for the versatility of having both power under motor and sailing capabilities.
The 60 horsepower Mercury four stroke allows the boat to cruise at 11 miles per hour with a top speed of 14 mph.
It also can take advantage of the wind with the roller furled headsail and mainsail, both made by Doyle Sails.
Easily trailered, the mast can be raised with the new rigging system and fully rigged in about 30 minutes with a little practice.
The boat employs a water ballast system for use under sail. While under power the water can be released making the boat lighter and faster under motor.
Both the twin rudders and the centerboard can be raised and the boat brought right up to the beach drawing only a foot of water.
Below deck there is a small galley with alcohol stove and sink. The dinette is to starboard and has an inlay covered by plexiglass where you can put the charts for your local waters.
The vee berth forward sleeps two as does a mid-cabin berth behind the companionway stairs. The dinette also converts to a double allowing the boat to sleep 6 people.
Stability under sail comes from the water ballast tanks and the lowered center board drawing over 5 feet of water. The high freeboard makes for a dry ride even when the seas kick up.
The engine is a 2012 and installed in 2013 and runs strong.
The cabin is clean with no mildew or head odors.
The trailer appears in a roadworthy condition with good tires and a spare.
We're told that the sails made by Doyle are in good condition. The dodger was new in 2015 and in stellar shape.
The hull has some small digs in the gel coat on the port side and more gel coat work needs to be done at the bow, but appears nothing critical to effect the integrity of the hull.
