HI! My galfriend and I are interested in a Macgregor 26 water ballast boat for sailing the canals of Europe in a few years. But: we are complete novices to sailing, and have never been aboard a MacGregor 26 [except at a boat show, on the ground]. So we are looking for any opportunity to sail with someone on their 26-footer. We live in Silver Spring area, so Annapolis would be the closest port. Any takers? Or suggestions? Reach me at: bmsinmd@zcloud.net Thanks a heap in advance, ~ Bruce ~
