The MacGregor 65 stands as a polarizing yet undeniably ambitious chapter in the history of American yacht building. Launched in 1984, it was the world’s largest production sailboat at the time, designed to bring the "Sled" performance of the West Coast racing scene to a broader market. Roger MacGregor applied his philosophy of lightness and cost-efficiency to a massive 65-foot hull, resulting in a vessel that remains one of the fastest production monohulls ever built for its price point. While traditionalists often critiqued its narrow beam and lightweight construction, the model found a dedicated following among those seeking a "greyhound" of the sea capable of sustained high-speed passage making.
