The MacGregor 26M represents the final evolution of Roger MacGregor’s ambitious "powersailer" concept, a design that famously attempted to bridge the gap between a trailerable cruising sailboat and a highspeed motorboat. Produced between 2003 and 2013, the 26M (standing for "Motorsailer") followed the highly successful 26X, introducing a more aerodynamic deck mold, a rotating mast, and a significant shift from a swingkeel to a daggerboard system. Unlike traditional sailboats that rely on heavy lead keels, the 26M utilizes a dualballast system: 300 pounds of permanent solid ballast supplemented by 1,150 pounds of water ballast. This allows the boat to remain light enough for towing by a standard SUV while providing the stability required for coastal sailing once the tanks are flooded.
