Macgregor 26D is a 25 9 79 m monohull sailboat designed by Roger MacGregor and built by Macgregor Yacht Corp between 1986 and 1989.
Macgregor 26 keel. Along the way the styling evolved from original models that looked more like traditional sailboats to the distinctive Euro-powerboat appearance of the 26M. For access under boat to drop keel all I would do was drop trailer tongue all the way to the ground then secure and block stern of boat.

Thanks to a number of Macgregor owners for providing corrections and updated images. Jolley Roger Registered. Racing is not the issue.
Launching my 1994 Macgregor 26c sailing boat at Northampton Boat Club in June 2019. This is a 1994 MacGregor 26S Sailboat with trailer and 8 hp outboard motor in excellent condition. Fits 26 classic and all keel boats as well as other brands of boats.
Instead of chugging with the diesel at 4 knots the MacGregor 26 speeds along at 22 mph. Also with water ballast reduced weight for trailering. The M25 had a weighted centerboard keel like other trailer able sailboats but featured positive flotation a low price easy trailer ability and a comfortable interior with an enclosed head porta-potty.

Thanks to a number of Macgregor owners for providing corrections and updated images. From canvas and cushions to rigging and hardware by top suppliers like Lewmar Schaefer Gray Ronstan and more. MacGregor designed a retracting keel and later a water ballast system aimed at providing convenience and safety to those sailing trailerable cruising boats.
