ABOUT  the company behind the 26M trailerable cruiser

OVERVIEW

Sail Magazine has recognized the MacGregor Yacht Corporation as one of the most innovative of the sailboat builders over the last 3 decades, and as the builder that brought affordable sailing to thousands.

The company began the trailerable sailboat market, now the fastest growing segment of sailing.

They also invented the water ballast system that provides the safety of a true keelboat. Their water ballast system has been copied by other major builders, and has become the new standard for the trailerable sailboat industry.

Creating a light weight boat that could be driven at a high speed with a relatively low horsepower outboard motor and still be a high performance sailboat has been their focus. The culmination of all of this is the MacGregor 26M.

Roger MacGregor is proud of his achievements.

The boats that carry his name,

have earned lasting recognition

by fostering new enjoyment

and growth in the sport of sailing

through excellent design.


The MacGregor Yacht Corporation began in the early 1960's by Roger MacGregor as a class project at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, while earning his MBA . The company is still a family business today and has avoided the layers of management which for many companies reduces efficiency and increases costs.

The company concentrates on building detailed, foolproof, low cost tooling and production systems for one model at a time which improves the efficiency considerably and provides high value and end costs to the consumer under control.


The trailerable cruiser is a smaller boat with the amenities of a big boat. To pack the amenities of a smaller boat into a boat which is light enough to haul around, and to take the abuse of trailering, it is necessary to be fully optimized.  MacGregor has successfully done this with the help of  the latest computer software. The culmination of all the companies experience and technology to date is the MacGregor 26M.
