Notes: Dry boat weight: 1650 lbs.\nCenterboard weight: 50 lbs.\nAn 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).\nSpinnaker area: 360 sq. ft.\nNumber built includes both S & D models, making the 26 one of the most widely produced sailboats of this size and type in the world.\nThanks to a number of Macgregor owners for providing corrections and updated images.
