It seemed to me at the time that the boats got bigger more than they got faster, resulting in a boat slow for its size. It was a cruised up version of the North Star 500 QT. They raised the sheer a bunch to get headroom. PHRF in the 220's - about the same as other QT's of the era. They were fast back then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fairly roomy for the day with a ton of tumblehome. Thought they were originally a MORC boat tweaked for IOR 1/4 Tonner when that became popular? There are still plenty sailing around the Great Lakes, built like tanks with a solid hull if the PO hasn't poked too many holes in the cored deck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Breamerly 73 #14326 Posted August 14 That vessel, not just the class, actually has a relatively detailed Wikipedia page with a few interesting details.... ... including reference to what might be a wee bit of a problem for excited dreamers salivating at the thought of water skiing behind their floating home at 48 miles per hour. Apparently the phrase "0 hours' actually means then it has no engine, because the original turbine exploded in 1982. The cost of repair was so high that it was decommissioned and sold to a private party, who never completed the restoration. Someone later took it over to turn into a floating museum. To what is unclear, since it only ever saw service as a test vessel for first the Navy, then the coast guard, both of whom evidently decided they weren't terribly interested in further experimentation. The USS Arizona it ain't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diarmuid 538 #14357 Posted August 30 2 hours ago, Breamerly said: With less weight aloft wouldn't it roll *less*? (I have no idea what I'm talking about) Less amplitude, but shorter period. If you've ever watched a metronome, you know that moving the weight up (toward the top of the swing arm) gives a larger swing, but a much slower one (lento, largo); move the weight down toward the pivot point, the swing is short and sharp (presto, allegro). A keel gives lots of weight but on a short arm -- very jerky and twitchy. A tall mast, even tho light, dampens the twitch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SloopJonB 6,885 #14358 Posted August 30 Even with the mast a sailboat can roll you sick with no sail up. I usually leave the main up when motoring - much better motion. That's the reason trawlers have steadying sails. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet LF Herreshoff would have had some choice words about the boxy doghouse on top of it. And when the seller says "the trailer is worth $1200" he must mean that you could buy a different trailer for $1200 and throw this one in recycle. I have a neighbor who would like the cement steps, though - DSK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marcjsmith 322 #14377 Posted September 15 not one, but two...Mac 19's so you have spare parts rare, and they sail well.... https://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/boa/d/haymarket-two-macgregor-19-motorsailors/7194132864.html Selling two Macgregor 19 motor sailors. One in excellent cond. With Johnson 60hp 2 stroke on galv trailer. One is in good cond with 45 h.p. Honda 4 stroke on Mac original trailer. These boats are unique and becoming rare. They are a smaller version of the M26 and much easier to transport and set up. They run approx 30 mph yet also sail well. They have a lot of room in them for a 19' boat. Prefer to sell them together. If sold seperately $6500 and $4500 each or 10k for both. For details voice call only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
