Back at the docks! That view coming out of the breakwater with the island is iconic. I met a couple who had a McGregor that they trailered to different locations to sail. They towed it with a large pickup truck and used the boat as a camper while on the road to the places they sailed.

Yes! That's what we do when travelling with our Mac 26X as well. Not too many RVs have a place where we can sit in a balcony (the cockpit) and have a drink or beer or just take a snooze. ;-)

McGregor can also be used as a camping car.That's a good idea.

@17:40 how did you mount that white box outside the boat?

[@RisingSunAm]

This is to store wet things. The port box contains parachute anchors for fishing. The starboard box contains a long anchor rope. You can easily remove the hook and put it in the boat when you put the boat on the side. Also, the white painted wooden lid on the top is convenient for placing things.

@@RisingSunAm thank you - did you have to drill holes in the boat to mount the boxes?

[@RisingSunAm]

@@cuestion-de-tiempo A total of four holes were made in the hull, caulked, and the eyes were fixed with screw screws.
